US Added Over 188K EV-Related Jobs In Recent Years, Include Vingroup (Parent company of VinFast)

In the last few years, automakers have embarked on a factory-building boom in the US thanks to friendly EV policies and generous federal and state subsidies. A new interactive map points to where EV investments are exactly concentrated while also highlighting the subsequent number of jobs created. In recent years, $154 billion worth of EV investments have generated 188,000 jobs, according to Blue Green Alliance Foundation and Atlas Public Policy’s data. The majority of the jobs and investments appear to be concentrated in the mid-west and the south, with EV-related economic activity also spreading to the east and west coasts. From a total of 319 facilities, 32 percent are located among disadvantaged communities, potentially boosting local economies, and opening up rural employment opportunities. Moreover, 25 percent of the facilities are unionized, more than double the US average of 10 percent, as per the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The data also showcases the rise of EV-related jobs over the years. In 2010, just three facilities accounted for 2,700 jobs. Since then, the figure has soared to nearly 80,000 jobs added in 2022 alone from 101 facilities. Vingroup (VinFast’s parent company) ranked 8th with 7.5k new EV jobs. The states with leading…

A recent survey found that some interesting electric car facts: The first electric vehicle was created in 1832. (Energy.gov) An EV would cost only $1.22 in energy to travel the same distance as a gallon of gas, which currently averages $3.83. (Energy.gov, AAA) The majority of EV car sales are in three markets: China, Europe and the United States. China leads the way with 60 percent of EV car sales globally. (IEA) EV car usage is on target to avoid the use of 5 million barrels of oil per day by 2030 (IEA) 77 percent of people who want to purchase an electric vehicle cite saving money on gas as the primary reason. (AAA) More than one-third of Americans would “definitely” or “seriously consider buying an electric vehicle if they were to purchase a new car today (Consumer Reports).

The battle between the auto industry and the tech giants

To build connection systems for cars, manufacturers have tested and spent a lot of money on research and technology development, but they have faced too strong competition from the “big guys” ( Big Tech) technology. By “dominating” the field of car technology, Apple, Google or Amazon all intend to develop their own “empire” on existing platforms. Customers spend less time in their cars than they do on their mobile phones in some regions, especially North America. “Big Tech” is gradually taking control of the digital future of the auto sector thanks to their unique tactics. A partnership between a car manufacturer and a technology giant As car infotainment displays become more and more smartphone-like, a mutually beneficial partnership between automakers and tech companies is beginning. This is beneficial because it contributes to improving the user experience and helps give birth to Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and Baidu CarLife (in the Chinese market). Today, instead of limiting consumers to a single connection, the majority of automakers offer all available smart protocols. With the advent of virtual assistants like Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa integrated into cars, things are moving faster and faster. Digital technology is predicted to become a key component…

In the past 10 years, thanks to the support of the Government and the exploding green car trend in the country (the growth rate of electric cars in China in a decade has been faster than many decades of growth in the Japanese and European markets). Europe or North America) Chinese battery companies have grown strongly in both output and the speed of battery technology development. Even for car manufacturers such as Tesla, Volkswagen, Hyundai, BMW… equipping batteries from China on car models sold in this market also helps them have a certain competitive advantage. And CATL is the battery company that has this advantage and has grown rapidly, surpassing LG Chem, Panasonic, SK On, and Samsung SDI to lead the battery supply chain for 6 consecutive years.

NASA technology helps fully charge electric vehicles in 5 minutes

Experimental technology NASA uses to cool equipment in space could cut electric vehicle (EV) charging times to less than five minutes. This news comes in the context that electric vehicle sales are on the rise and have reached their highest level ever. The experimental technology was initially developed by scientists to support “nuclear fission power systems for missions to the Moon, Mars, and other more distant planets.” Specifically, this technology provides fuel for “vapor compression heat pumps to operate. From there, EV engines help maintain habitats on the Moon and Mars, while controlling heat and supporting life inside spacecraft.” Thanks to the “subcooled flow boiling” technique, NASA technology can increase the current through improved heat transfer through the charging cable. This will significantly reduce the time needed to fully charge a vehicle. NASA explains that an electric current with a minimum strength of 1,400 amps can fully charge an electric car within 5 minutes. Meanwhile, the fastest chargers used in science and industry today only produce a maximum of 520 amps, and most chargers on the market only support less than 150 amps. A research team from Purdue University, led by mechanical engineering professor Issam Mudawar, said their experiment successfully…
