Verkoop elektrische auto’s stijgt

By Ninian Carter

October 6, 2021 - De wereldwijde verkoop van elektrische auto’s wordt geschat op
2,5 miljoen in 2020 en zal naar verwachting groeien tot 31,1 miljoen
in 2030. Maar personeelstekorten dreigen de voortgang te belemmeren

As electric vehicle (EV) sales soar, internal combustion engine vehicle (ICE) sales are forecast to tumble, leading to EVs having a market share of almost a third by the year 2030.

The global auto industry’s shift to EVs has spurred an expansion race among battery makers, leading to a skills shortage, particularly in South Korea where mega-factories make batteries for many of the world’s EVs.

South Korea’s three major players – LG Energy Solution, SK On and Samsung SDI — which dominate a third of the global EV battery market say they are struggling with a shortage of skilled research and engineering workers.

Demand for new battery technology is escalating, in particular, the need to advance development of cutting edge solid state batteries which can recharge in 10 minutes and travel 500km in one go.
