We now stand at theprecipiceof the age of batteries and electric vehicles, technologies likely tosteamrollfossil-fuel companies and petro states. From a few thousand fully electric cars sold around the worldin the late aughts,consumers are on track to buy four million of them this year.
咱们正处在电池和电动汽车期间的绝境边沿，这些技能可能会压垮化石燃料公司和煤油国度。21世纪00年月晚期，全世界售出的全电动汽车只有几千辆，到本年，消费者有望采办400万辆。
So far, the United States appears to be little more than a spectator to this revolution. While its battery makers and automakers are poised to produce cutting-edge batteries and popular electric vehicles, they will rely almost entirely on a supply chain controlled by China. Over the past decade, China has built up most of the world’s capacity to process the metals that make lithium-ion batteries — the heart of the electric vehicle revolution — work. It is this capacity that puts China in thecatbird seatin the race for the future while America falls farther and farther behind.
到今朝为止，美国彷佛不外是这场革命的观看者。固然美国的电池制造商和汽车制造商对出产最先辈的电池和风行的电动汽车蓄势待发，但他们将几近彻底依靠由中国节制的供给链。金属锂离子电池是电动汽车革命的焦点，曩昔十年里，世界上大部门这类金属的加工能力是由中国创建的。恰是这类能力使中国在将来的竞争中处于领先位置，而美国则后进地愈来愈远。
Following the financial crash of 2008, the United States and China, along with Japan, South Korea and other countries, began an undeclared race to create and reap the dividends of the E.V. industry, including associated businesses such as battery production. This led the United States and China to injectstoutpublic funding into battery and E.V. start-ups and established companies, in hopes of kick-starting an economic recovery.
2008年金融危机以后，美国、中国和日本、韩国和其他国度，起头了一场秘而不泄的比赛，缔造并收割电动车行业的盈利，包含电池出产等相干营业。这致使美国和中国向电池和电动汽车的草创公司和成熟公司投入了大量的大众资金，但愿可以或许再次刺激经济苏醒。

In China, by contrast, state-backed companies have secured a reliable supply of the raw metals and elements behind E.V. batteries. In the last three and a half years alone, Chinese companies have been the biggest international buyers of additional lithium assets amid soaring prices for the metal. By 2018, Chinese companies also owned half of the largest cobaltminesin the Democratic Republic of Congo, the source of most of the world’s supply of the metal.
动比拟之下，中国由国度支撑的公司可以或许确保用于制造电动车电池的原质料金属和元件获得靠得住供给。在曩昔三年半的时候里，在锂金属代价飙升的环境下，中国公司一向是分外锂资产最大的国际采办方。到2018年，中国公司还具有了刚果民主共和国最大钴矿的对折资本，这个国度是世界上大部门钴金属的供给方。
