Since the mid-2000s, lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery costs have been dropping steadily, enabling its adoption in many industries such as portable electronics and transportation. Governments worldwide have seen the adoption of Li-ion batteries as a once-in-a-lifetime industrial opportunity in terms of job creation and competitive advantage in the transportation sector.

Some of them have tried to speed up the adoption of electric vehicles through subsidies, tax breaks and mandatory manufacturing quotas, sometimes replicating US legislation. In this context, China appears to be the most active country.
