The global electric vehicle (EV) market is thriving, with sales surpassing 20 million units last year, particularly in China and Latin America. However, the U.S. market is stagnating at around 10% market share due to policy setbacks. Chinese automakers are leading growth, making EVs more affordable in emerging markets. Legacy automakers risk losing market share if they don't adapt to the EV trend, while the U.S. government pushes for fossil fuel reliance, facing challenges as the global market shifts towards electric vehicles.

Global EV market goes K-shaped as the U.S. gets left behind

China has introduced a policy to promote multi-user direct green power connection projects, aiming to enhance local consumption of renewable electricity. This initiative supports the dual-carbon agenda and allows users to utilize nearby renewable resources. The policy prioritizes emerging industries and sets stricter consumption requirements, mandating that at least 60% of a project's electricity must be self-consumed. The move is seen as a significant step towards improving renewable energy consumption and transitioning to greener industrial production.
