The South African entrepreneur is, among his many positions, also the CEO of Tesla, the automotive industry that has been making electric 100% cars for years. Still luxury items for the <strong>mass market<\/strong>, these vehicles have however influenced the entire industry of <strong>mobility<\/strong>: in fact, there is no car manufacturer that has not published at least one concept of a green or post diesel model. In <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/festivaldelfuturo.eu\/en\/2021\/03\/23\/transizione-ecologica-italia-promossa-per-i-rifiuti-resta-il-nodo-plastica\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ecological transition<\/a><\/strong> which a large part of the policy has taken on board, however, it will be necessary to understand how to implement <strong>batteries<\/strong> <strong>efficient<\/strong> to power a new fleet of cars, also taking into consideration the chapter of necessarily renewable sources for recharging cars to ensure that the framework is truly green. It&#039;s been years that <strong>Elon Musk<\/strong> works on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesla.com\/gigafactory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gigafactory<\/a><\/strong>, huge industrial plants dedicated to the production of batteries to power electric cars, to the point that the idea has also won over several entrepreneurs around the world (even in Italy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Musk and the monopoly risk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tesla&#039;s first Gigafactory was built in <strong>Nevada<\/strong>, in the desert. According to the magazine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/transportation\/2018\/11\/30\/18118451\/tesla-gigafactory-nevada-video-elon-musk-jobs-model-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Verge<\/a>, who visited it several years ago, here Tesla intends to kick off a <strong>quasi-monopoly control<\/strong> of the production of lithium-ion batteries. Looking ahead, the company should produce 60% of the total worldwide. During the <strong>Battery Day<\/strong> last year, <strong>Elon Musk<\/strong> he had declared what he is <strong>research and development work on batteries is crucial<\/strong>, to make them more efficient and durable. In fact, there was talk of &quot;super batteries&quot; with an overall life cycle of 1.6 million km. Furthermore there is the cost chapter: if the Gigafactories were to succeed in the goal of churning out cheaper batteries, this would have a positive impact on the cost of the electric ones which, at the moment, are on the market with prices that are not always competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Batteries and ecars: the Toyota version<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of Tesla&#039;s competitors par excellence, the Japanese giant, intervened on this hot topic <strong>Toyota<\/strong>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/toyotas-chief-says-electric-vehicles-are-overhyped-11608196665\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Akio Toyoda<\/a>, the president of the Japanese car manufacturer, had entered the subject of electric cars with a straight leg at the end of 2020. According to Toyota&#039;s number one <strong>ecars are overrated<\/strong>. &quot;When politicians say &#039;let&#039;s get rid of all cars that use gasoline&#039;, do they understand what that means?&quot;, He asked a few months ago, referring to the enormous energy effort needed to replace fossil mobility with electric one. A debate is taking place in Italy too, which seeks to go deeper into the issue, in order to understand <strong>how much the electric transition will cost in terms of jobs in the auto market<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Gigafactory<\/strong> however, they seem to offer a profitable business model, which also finds fertile ground in Italy. One of these, in fact, will open soon in Piedmont, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/startupitalia.eu\/2021\/02\/19\/gigafactory-nellex-olivetti-il-piano-dellitaliana-italvolt-per-competere-con-musk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">in the former Olivetti headquarters in Scarmagno<\/a><\/strong> in the province of Turin. To invest in this corner of northern Italy - where construction sites for the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/festivaldelfuturo.eu\/en\/2021\/05\/25\/vertiporti-pendolarismo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first tricolor vertiport<\/a><\/strong> - will be the Italian <strong>Italvolt<\/strong>, which announced a \u20ac 4 billion investment. On paper, the facility could be one of the largest in the world. The more the battery market is open and competitive, the more there will be the possibility of containing prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>The disposal node<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It wouldn&#039;t be true <strong>ecological transition<\/strong> if we didn&#039;t worry about the whole supply chain concerning batteries. According to the most recent data taken from the <strong>BBC<\/strong> and cited by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.repubblica.it\/green-and-blue\/2021\/04\/30\/news\/auto_elettrica_che_fine_fanno_le_batterie_esauste_-298780530\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Republic<\/a><\/strong>, as soon as the 5% would be properly recycled by the manufacturers. The risk is not only for the environment, but also for people and workers (if not disposed of correctly, in fact, batteries can even explode). Last but not least, there remains the knot of <strong>workers rights<\/strong> which, especially in China, operate in <strong>precarious conditions<\/strong> from the point of view of health protection.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the ecological transition underway, the role of batteries is fundamental.
