Ener1’s the future of their faith in this device, it is the lithium-ion battery model, Garson Haimer want to use it to drive a variety of environmentally friendly vehicles. President Barack Obama has set a goal that by 2012 the United States moving electric vehicles to reach 1 million. “If we want to achieve this goal,” Garson Haimer said, “would require nearly 400 billion dollars in domestic battery.” Majority of experts believe that the lithium-ion will become a mainstream technology, with hybrid vehicles currently in use the battery compared to lithium-ion batteries are lighter and more storage capacity. Ener1 companies need to do is from the U.S. government to raise 480 million U.S. dollars loan.
The current one big question is: When electric cars become a mass market product (which takes about 10 years), Ener1, or any other a United States battery manufacturers can become major competitors in this field? In this area is already saturated. Other U.S. companies claim to develop the efficient use of the model with at least Garson Haimer battery comparable products, they have split from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology out of A123 Systems Inc., as well as France and the United States joint venture Johnson Controls-Saft, The latter has managed with Ford, BMW and Mercedes - Benz signed a contract. But the U.S. companies face the challenge from Asia, these competitors have greater financial resources and more powerful lithium-ion-rich development experience.
Asia’s strong financial
No matter who is the winner, eventually there will be a number of lithium-ion batteries assembled in the United States. The key question is which companies will thus control the core technology, which is installed in the battery pack inside the lithium-ion battery and car power system design.
Ener1 and A123, and other U.S. competitors have a cutting-edge automotive asus a42-v6 battery，asus a42-w1 battery technology. The world’s largest manufacturer of conventional automotive lead-acid battery has a Johnson Controls automotive industry in cooperation with the relevant experience, and with the French company Saft established an alliance, which for the aerospace industry and industrial supply of lithium batteries. Asian competitors is that they rely on the computer and electrical equipment lithium batteries monopoly and their integration with Toyota and Honda Motor Co. hybrid project relationship.
In addition, Asian companies are more able to pay the construction of large high-tech manufacturing plant needed hundreds of millions of dollars. U.S. investors willing to take risks for emerging companies to inject such a huge amount of money, especially when caught in an economic recession, low-cost hybrid car oil also cast a shadow over the future. Ener1 company’s share price soared last fall, but since December has fallen by half since mid-, and now is about 4 U.S. dollars per share.
Whether the U.S. government should provide a promising but not yet able to confirm that the prospects for the industry billions of dollars in loans and fund? Or whether the Government should wait until after the market taking shape to provide support for U.S. companies? This is one of the risk is that there may also be an important industry repeat the memory chips, digital displays, the first solar panels and the first for a notebook computer and cell phone lithium-ion asus a42-w3 battery,asus laptop battery in the past. In these areas, subject to the federal financial support for all leading U.S. scientists, but these industries and the consequent high-income manufacturing jobs are quickly settled down in Asia. U.S. labor costs and taxes have forced many companies to move overseas, but most cases units abroad just because Asian governments, banks and companies more willing to take risks than the U.S. counterparts invested heavily.
This time, the federal government may help. Last year, Washington under the “advanced technology vehicle manufacturing program” (Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing Program) set aside 25 billion U.S. dollars of funds to accelerate the commercialization of environmentally-friendly vehicle and battery manufacturers are expected to draw a slice. Ener1’s EnerDel subsidiary has filed an application for loans to build an annual production capacity of up to 60 million batteries factory. Watertown, Mass.-based rival A123 hoped to Michigan, with 18 billion dollars in the construction of a car battery factory. U.S. manufacturer of lithium batteries from the stimulus plan to secure two billion U.S. dollars in federal funds for research, development and manufacture of funding.
Lithium-ion rechargeable hybrid vehicles is considered a core technology. Rechargeable hybrid cars and most of the current hybrid car is different from the ordinary people can use electricity charge, but also in the switch to gasoline engines even longer before the mileage life of its electricity. With the current hybrid cars use nickel-metal hydride fujitsu laptop battery,fujitsu fpcbp80 compared to lithium battery storage capacity is that it’s three times more, while the release of its electricity is twice as high. Came out in 2011 Chevrolet Volt is the car use the T-shaped lithium-ion battery pack that can accommodate 200 such batteries. “They are not a separate part. Them and the car is a whole,” Nissan Motor Co. joint venture with NEC to create a vehicle energy supply company (Automotive Energy Supply), president Masahiko Otsuka, said the company’s goal is for the new lithium-ion Batteries infrastructure investment 275 million U.S. dollars.
Can manage power grids
General Motors and Ford agreed that if the United States hopes to become heavyweight field of environmentally-friendly vehicle, then the development of domestic lithium-ion battery industry is crucial, otherwise the fate of Detroit, will be held by the other side of the planet in the hands of suppliers. In addition, the lithium-ion battery technology can also be used to help electric utilities more efficiently manage their power grids, the potential market size is far greater than the automotive market. “As a nation, we can rely on outsiders,” General Motors Corp. director of energy storage Danisleinoge said, “but we will be left behind.” General Motors turned to South Korea’s LG Chem company, which provides requirements for motor vehicles Volt The lithium-ion batteries, which the auto maker said the U.S. companies lack sufficient manufacturing experience.
Another strong competitor is the Toyota Motor Corporation Asia Holdings Panasonic EV Energy Company (Panasonic EV Energy). Current hybrid cars use nickel-metal hydride batteries, 90% are supplied by Panasonic. Last year, Panasonic has agreed to acquire the world’s largest rechargeable battery maker Sanyo Electric (Sanyo Electric).
China has a dozen or so manufacturers, the Chinese government has also announced that lithium-ion is a strategic industry. Mainland battery giant BYD Automobile Company (Warren Buffett, the company holds a 10% stake) at the Detroit Auto Show with a small rechargeable hybrid vehicles - F6DM attracted everyone’s attention. BYD said the car before switching to the gasoline engine, you can drive 60 miles using lithium fujitsu fpcbp77 , fujitsu fpcbp68. BYD has already begun in the Chinese market sell hybrid cars, which cost 2.2 million U.S. dollars. The Volt is expected the price of 4 million.
Ener1 to see the company’s headquarters in Manhattan will play a very simple, which is hard to think that one day it will become the industry giant. Last year in August, a former hedge fund manager Charles Garson Haimer was appointed as CEO of Ener1, his task is to consolidate the company’s management. His office is almost no furnishings, only one frame, which put the Indiana Republican Senator Richard Lugar visit the company’s factory is located in Indianapolis when the photographs; another office is also on display a charitable activities, posters and a book-size white metal fittings.
