    Michael Dunne - Paranoia and Opportunity - The Contrasting Fortunes of Western and Chinese EV Manufacturers

    In this conversation, we interview Michael Dunne about the current state of the electric vehicle industry, with a focus on the state of play for Western OEMs and their Chinese competitors. We discuss the shift of automotive production to Asia, the challenges faced by Western OEMs in catching up to Chinese competitors, and whether or not western OEMs have any hope of matching Chinese scale and technological acumen. We also explore the barriers to widespread EV adoption, including cost and infrastructure, and if the current debate around Chinese "overcapacity" has any validity to it. We finish with a discussion of lesser-known players in the EV and autonomy space, such as Baidu, Xiaomi, and Vinfast, as well as Michael's favorite poem and how many languages he actually can speak and understand. Michael is CEO at Dunne Insights LLC, an automotive consultancy with a global client base. He is an entrepreneur with special expertise in China and its complex and dynamic automotive market. He has an incredibly varied background across Asia and the automotive business in particular. He is the author of the forthcoming book titled 'Humiliation No More - China’s Master Plan to Dominate EV Markets and Destroy western Automakers out in Summer 2025.

    Ernest Scheyder - Author of "The War Below" - Who Decides How "Good Mining" is Defined

    Today we welcome Ernest Scheyder to discuss his recently published book, "The War Below: Lithium, Copper, and the Global Battle to Power Our Lives." Ernest is the first author I have hosted on the podcast and given our mutual interest in the metals business, we cover a lot of ground here. Ernest does a terrific job of putting a human face on some complex issues as well as sharing some great stories from his time on the road researching this book (ask him about the Norseman Burger). Ernest Scheyder is a senior correspondent for Reuters, covering the green energy transition and the minerals that undergird it. He previously covered the US shale oil revolution, politics, and the environment, and held roles at the Associated Press and the Bangor Daily News. A native of Maine, Scheyder is a graduate of the University of Maine and Columbia Journalism School.  Link to the book and other information about Ernest can be found at https://www.ernestscheyder.com/

    The Lithium Ion Supply Chain View from North America: Shining City or a Fading Giant?

    This episode of The Power Current is somewhat unique. Host Chris Berry has an editorial piece he wrote which, unfortunately, was not picked up by a publisher. Instead, we take the opportunity for Chris to share his editorial, here, on his own podcast. In this piece, Chris asks the questions regarding America's technological advances in battery technology. Is the United States the shining city on the hill, in regards to R&D of batteries? Or is it losing the battle to foreign countries, including its geopolitical adversaries? The piece leaves lots of questions for the listener to ponder.

    Emily Hersh - CEO of Luna Lithium - Argentina Economic/Political Overview and Lessons Learned as a CEO

    Our guest today is Emily Hersh, a long-time friend, and CEO of Luna Lithium, a lithium exploration play focused on South America (Paraguay and Brazil). Emily is also an accomplished economist with roots in Argentina and the first part of our discussion focuses here. In this wide-ranging discussion, Emily and I go in depth into the macroeconomic situation in Argentina, to get a better understanding of how the lithium business can and will grow there and how Chinese interests are already well entrenched through currency swap arrangements and other deal structures. We also discuss the likelihood of Argentina joining the BRIC economies, other South American countries and their challenges and opportunities. Finally, Emily discusses lessons learned during her journey as the CEO of a privately held lithium explorer including the benefits of being private versus publicly held, making sure you’re “in the right room”, and how to build and position the company to weather a dynamic and volatile macro environment.

    Dr Vincent Pluvinage - CEO of OneD - The Reality of Electric Vehicles is Here and We Must Compete for Affordability

    Today we welcome in Vincent Pluvinage, CEO of Co-Founder of OneD Battery Sciences. OneD Battery Sciences is the leader in providing the most scalable and cost effective manufacturing process to produce silicon-graphite anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. Its proven manufacturing technology leverages existing commercial graphite suppliers to address the current needs of EV makers for higher energy density, lower cost and lower carbon footprint EV batteries. OneD has partnered with GM for development of their technologies and the company is looking to expand into more OEM partnerships. But outside of the science of their research, Vincent dives into why affordability of EVs in incredibly important right now with Chinese EVs hitting markets outside of its own country. Vince is also outspoken as to how to solve the battery problem, and his thoughts as to why its more of a people and education issue than it is a technology issue.
