China's control over crucial resources like lithium and cobalt, coupled with their advanced manufacturing capabilities, positions them at the forefront of the global EV industry.

The production of electric vehicles (EVs) relies on several key resources and materials. Here’s a rundown of the essential components:

Batteries: The most critical component of an EV is its battery, specifically lithium-ion batteries, which require lithium, cobalt, nickel, and manganese. These elements are crucial for their energy density and efficiency.

Electric Motors: EV motors are predominantly made using copper and rare earth elements like neodymium and dysprosium, vital for producing powerful yet lightweight electric motors.

Power Electronics: Silicon carbide and gallium nitride are used in the power electronics of EVs. These materials help manage electrical energy efficiency and are used in inverters that convert DC power from the batteries to AC power for the motors.

Structural Components: Aluminum and advanced high-strength steel are used extensively to reduce weight while maintaining safety and performance standards.

Thermal Management Systems: Cooling systems maintain battery efficiency and longevity. These systems often use advanced coolant materials.

Charging Infrastructure: Building an EV requires not just the vehicle itself but also an extensive charging infrastructure, including copper and other conductive materials.

Software and Sensors: EVs require sophisticated software for battery management systems, autonomous driving capabilities, and other digital controls. Sensors and microcontrollers are also essential for their functioning.
