MP Materials is in the enviable position of having a mine and processing facility already up and running in California, and it has big ambitions. Matt Sloustcher: If you read the EV Tax Credit legislation, the sourcing restrictions on critical minerals are limited to the battery system. Advancing bipartisan legislation such as H.R.

We now have three working converted prototypes (both described in Fact Sheet above, shown in photos and here ): The Calcars first proof-of-concept: (100+ mpg plus electricity, 10-mile electric range, now with temporary lead-acid battery pack, soon to be replaced by nickel metal-hydride batteries).

CalCars supports conversion programs as a strategy to increase awareness and support for PHEVs and thereby motivate automakers to build production PHEVs. We will have similar solutions available for better (but more expensive) nickel-metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries.) We believe both NiMH and Li-Ion are ready.

Environmental Effects and Benefits to top Wont all these cars require us to build even more power plants? A January 2007 Pacific National Laboratory study shows that if we woke up tomorrow and all our vehicles could plug in, todays grid could support more than three-quarters of them charging at night without building a single power plant.

Small long-term evaluation program, including modeling of vehicle-to-grid building benefits and economics, begun with Southern California Edison, joined by EPRI, other utilities, US DOE. The expansion will add an assembly line to build lithium batteries for automotive applications. Establishing dealer network.
