I-Los izimoto zikagesi sebezokwenza ezabo ukufika ngobuningi emakethe. Lokhu kuyiqiniso, kodwa futhi kuyiqiniso ukuthi ozokwazi ukuphatha ukukhiqizwa kwama-battery ukuwashayela nguyena ozokhonya emakethe namanani alezi zimoto. Kuze kube manje I-LG Chem, i-Samsung ne-Panasonic bangabakhiqizi abakhulu bale ngxenye. Enye yezinkampani ezinentshisekelo kule makethe yiTesla Motors, ene-Gigafactory yayo nePanasonic efuna ukuba yinkampani. inombolo yokuqala ekukhiqizeni ibhethri izimoto zikagesi kanye accumulators emakhaya emhlabeni wonke.
Nokho, kubonakala sengathi bashiye a isiqhudelana Chinese Ngeke kubenzele izinto zibe lula. Izindleko zamasheya Contemporary Amperex Technology Ltd I-(CATL) ingumkhiqizi waseShayina wamabhethri ezimoto zikagesi kancane kancane athola amandla kule makethe enzima. Ekuqaleni iqale njengomhlanganisi nje ngenxa yokuthi babengenawo amandla okuthuthuka, kodwa kubonakala sengathi manje sebengakwenza kokubili.
Phakathi neminyaka embalwa ye-Contemporary Amperex Technology I-CATL iphindaphindeke kathathu ukukhiqizwa kwayo kwamabhethri e-lithium ion futhi seliphindeke kane inani layo lemakethe. Lokhu kubavumele ukuthi badlule i-LG Chem futhi bagxile ekwenzeni kahle kakhulu kunabo bonke abakhiqizi bebhethri, ngokugxila ngokukhethekile kumbangi wabo olandelayo, iPanasonic ne-BYD. Futhi, ngonyaka ka-2020 bafuna ukweqa i-50 GWh okuyinto uTesla kanye neGigafactory yakhe abangayikhiqiza.
Ngokusho kukaHuang Shilin, oyi-CEO ye-CATL imfihlo yokukhula kwayo okunamandla ingaphakathi izwe lakubo. China Ingenye yezimakethe ezinkulu zezimoto zikagesi futhi uma i-CATL ikwazi ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zezwe, izoqinisekiswa ngokuthengiswa okungaphezu konyaka okunesithunzi. Ubuye washo lokho bafuna ukugasela izimakethe zaseYurophu nabaseMelika futhi njengobufakazi balokhu intshisekelo abanayo ekwakheni ifektri ezwenikazi lethu kanye namahhovisi emazweni njengeFrance, Germany noma Sweden. Ekugcineni, naye wakubona lokho phakathi kwamakhasimende ayo kukhona iBMW, nakuba ingakacacisi ukuthi ingakanani.
