Leading EV-Battery Producer Considers Bankruptcy as Crisis Deepens


Northvolt, a Swedish company once seen as a cornerstone of Europe’s battery production efforts, is in crisis.

Reports indicate the company is evaluating bankruptcy options, including filing for Chapter 11 protection under U.S. law. This would allow Northvolt to restructure its debts while continuing operations.

The company faces a funding gap of approximately $920 million USD, according to Boosted.

Efforts to secure new capital have reportedly stalled, leaving the firm’s future uncertain.

According to Financial Times, some investors have already written off their stakes in the company, signaling a lack of confidence in its recovery.

The Federal EV Tax Credit Will Be Eliminated By Trump Administration

President-elect Donald Trump's transition team is reportedly planning to eliminate the $7,500 federal tax credit for electric vehicle purchases as part of a larger tax reform effort.

The most recent version of the credit was introduced as part of President Joe Biden's Inflation Reduction Act to encourage EV adoption and is now in the crosshairs of an energy-focused policy group, Reuters reports. The group is headed by billionaire oilman Harold Hamm and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum.

Ending the tax credit will significantly impact already slow electric vehicle uptake.

Ford to cut 14% of European jobs, blaming EV shift and rising competition


Ford said on Wednesday it would cut around 14% of its European workforce, blaming significant losses in recent years compounded by weak demand for electric vehicles, a lack of government support for the shift to EVs, and rising competition.

The U.S. company is the latest automaker after Nissan, Stellantis and GM to cut costs as the industry struggles with growing competition from Chinese rivals in Europe, waning demand in China, and the challenges of shifting to EVs that remain too expensive for most consumers to buy.
