Electric vehicle (EV) demand has grown quickly in the U.S. The supply chain to support the production of these vehicles is ramping up in response. The presentation reviews the current state of the market, the main U.S. manufacturers of cells and materials in the EV and Non-EV space, and their customers. The presentation then reviews the challenges for U.S. suppliers to support the fast growth of the EV market.
