[000:00:00;00] the has electro mobility been an interest of yours since you were a kid out playing with electric racing cars. or are you someone who still skeptical? maybe you've already written these off and think they do better in a museum. there have long been calls to begin using more green energy to combat climate change. and the transition to electric vehicles is a big part of that. but despite the initial boom, sales of the bees are slowing. and this addition of made, we find out why much of today's program revolves around electro mobility. there's
8:31 am
a lot of investment happening in the technology. but when they are many buyers still holding back and for competitive reasons. many countries are using terrace to protect important industries. chinese these are still mainly coming to europe by ship. but b y d is now building a new plant in hungary to avoid the threat of a you import duties. the new b like you do, your factory is being built in southeastern hungary, new, the city of cit. get right now there are still construction vehicles here, but soon 1000 e b 's will roll off the production line here every day. the goal seems clear. b y d wants to become the leading manufacturer of thieves in europe, and he was hungry as a spring board. if plans are successful,
8:32 am
thousands of new jobs will be created and i do has minimal. i think it's very good because it will create jobs since he bought it. there hasn't been much industry in our city so far, but now that's improving. if this it is a or simple on the one hand. good. i guess it will create jobs, but i think it'll have a damaging impact on the environment and that's not good to, to on you. any concerns that are shared 200 kilometers away through the city of get present. eva the customer has founded us citizens initiative. there and is fighting against and other major chinese corporation. c a t l is building a new battery factory, just a few kilometers from her home and is investing 7500000000 euros. 7 such factories are to be built in the area. some are already in operation. so i and the boss actually, the representative said this around it and settlements have no say whatsoever has no influence whatsoever on the project. for a single source,
8:33 am
we said that said that no matter what the residents say, the factory will definitely bank bills are pretty smart, get the because look at the data and what plan is the hung, gary and government pursuing, but this prime minister, victor, oregon, is heavily criticized in the u. t repeatedly opposes e u decisions and pushes back because the free press and the judiciary and hungary is under threat. the us frozen billions and payments. this is creating a huge hole in the hung gary in state coffers, which is why victor, oregon is seeking financial support from authoritarian states such as russia and above all, china, well hungry in previous decades used. it's west started connections for financing it's economic development. it's now turned from the west to china. for financing is economic development. it has relied on
8:34 am
chinese funding for its infrastructure. and what does that mean for the people who live near the giant factories? a because my interest citizens initiative carried out their own independent air measurements. they found that the emissions around the factory are above the norm. she also reports that toxic waste water from the suppliers factory has been discharged into a ditch nearby. the water pollution only came to life, thanks to information from locals. government agencies don't take it seriously, she says, and there is no supervision to authorize. seniors was simply as great as the ground pollution of air in most of the ocean as also where is all the electricity for these fact, jeremy's come to come from. we said that the environment will be damaged and such, and then that will have to be the sonya. so it has to yak out how you doing prizing . eva,
8:35 am
caused by interest. citizens initiative have nothing against the creation of new jobs, but they want your opinion environmental standards to apply to chinese companies to be mobility arrived with high hopes, many sought to switch to more climate friendly electric vehicles would be quick and painless. but those hopes haven't materialized too expensive to few charging options to short or range in many countries, the electric vehicle has yet to fully catch on the electric vehicles. or e. v is promised cleaner energy, lower emissions, and a move away from fossil fuels. and soon as you ask them for the new technologies lead to long waiting times as demand outs strip supply. after the initial euphoria, the question is now what have you as an active site? although the number of uses risen rapidly in recent years,
8:36 am
their share on the roads is still low. in 2023, they made up 40000000 out of almost 1500000 cars worldwide. why is that? a mock email kit, especially in europe, is still in its infancy, even though however, the visa now being massively promote time due to the high development costs of switching costs, still have to be paid off. the acquisition costs sometimes higher than for combustion engines. as by couple of i know, and it's precisely the price that puts many customers off of what's more steep subsidies are slowly being seized down and also in germany, which is reflected in the number of new registrations. so far more e b, 's have been registered every year. growth has been constant, but according to forecast, they are set to fall to the 1st time in 2024 by just under 14 percent of the quote
8:37 am
and dodge 100 menu or for in gemini. we're seeing again and again the planning fee is, is scale back also down to liquid normally in order for that subset. of course, this is also related to the current slow down in sales to a you don't want to talk them in new york. this monday, or tuesday popular condition of divorced in the media group also wants to avoid stock piling its production. and just cutting back production edits 1st e factory in spic out with allied houses. now we've gone from being an important slide house going to an important size, mcgrath the plant and speak out has been in all electric car factory since 2020. the conversion is cost to group 1200000000 euros upsets markets, catch the least amount of sales situation is difficult at the moment as the market is unsettled. what's that doing to the plant? of course, we're noticing
8:38 am
a decline in demand and have to react. technically we were in a position to build $360000.00 units a year. we are currently in an output of a ranch, $240000.00 blank last year and by the department of store. this means that 33 percent fewer cars leave the factory and an entire shift has been eliminated on certain to use spreading among employees. the. anyone who has ever run a marathon knows their faces when things go wonderfully, but sometimes it hurts. it's crucial to maintain your willpower and focus and say we can do it if i can do it. i can get involved and move the location and the industry forward. the not everyone at this location is therefore hoping that the market will recover quickly. then i put people on products and the technology continues to growth. then i believe that things will pick up and production can be
8:39 am
wrapped up again. the technology is constantly evolving. ranges are increasing and prices are steadily following. electronic stability is here to stay the. so what happens if you opt to buy an e v instead of a car with an internal combustion engine, and then it breaks down. well, you always be able to find a repair shop close by and what type of different things that need to be serviced or repaired. let's take a closer look the. this is a test lab model. why with about 18000 kilometers on the clock. the car is ready to get service, but it's important to note, the tesla doesn't have a mandatory service scheduled owners can decide on their own when they want to have that contract of a vital elements and keeping maintenance costs down is the motor for like
8:40 am
a gasoline or diesel engine will have between one and 3000 components, depending on the size of the engine, say of the 6 or a 4 cylinder unit. and here we're talking about between $2400.00 parts, which is a big difference. as you can see from the space, there's practically enough to sit inside the motor. you're cut them on the quality of a plan that's and that's because in the combustion engine, there are a lot more moving parts and fluids compared to electric costs, as well as more things that need checking during a service. basically there's nothing for us to check after 200000 kilometers. you might change the oil in the differential, the only oil it has as for that and otherwise, assuming it works, everything's okay long as continue. so there's more so the engine is off the hook, but other fluids need to be checked in the air conditioning, for example, or your plastic wind screens. why
8:41 am
a fluids plus is the brake fluid spill in top condition, but we're not just finished yet with the brakes. because electric engines means that costs actually use them less often. the problem here is the recuperation, like when you take your foot off the gas, the energy is like covered by the motor and the brakes aren't used. a lot of carmakers don't allow you to activate some of the other, some like tests or do deactivating less. so there are special settings ranges and most people want that energy recovered and not using the break causes the disks just started rusting. so we're given dollars with the, the troops funds and just for notes, and then finally on. so some of them. so to prevent this, some manufacturers have it programmed in so that the con, uses the brakes from time to time to get rid of that corrosion. so the brakes can become a safety worry and might need to be replaced earlier than in
8:42 am
a combustion engine cost. there's also another source of concern on the test list on the side that can wear out sooner than in gasoline. pilot models the excell in 2023, many tesla model, fries fail, germany's mandatory inspection due to faulty x or construction of the most of these things the far greater weight. we are far more power going to use ice, which of course means an even greater burden on the actual and have enough to another component affects it by the weights and power off electric cause of the tires, the more expensive and might need replacing more frequently. that's the case when if the owners go pedals for the metal more often as a result, the time as i used up more quickly, lots of pod from the possibilities of mine, our cost increases the a whole bunch of things up, send in an eco, that mechanics like philip would usually need to look at in a combustion engine car. all of us, of course, i knew something, anyone would notice is that we have no exhaust. it would normally start here at the
8:43 am
engine. and then the transmission lever and down here to the catalytic converter or particle filter and some of the right the rear end of know how many has no control from phone of the central ins in gone is if it's not the doesn't need to be service . this can lead to low overall servicing costs, which is what jennifer i might add as guerra and to coach with team have been experiencing after starting to service the cost of here years ago. but i'm gonna have to do with the regular engines. the cost can be more in the thousands of your own, depending on the interval. and it's far less for electric vehicles. may be one or $200.00. again, depending on the maker and a service intervals, estella, which is about $40.00 for independent repair shops. it can be a challenge financially as that on many electric vehicles on the road. yes. the workforce required special high voltage training to deal with ease and special
8:44 am
equipment is needed as well. and you think we might need a separate workspace for that? plus the colleague in question needs to be able to work and piece of data daily and a team is to have to cover each other. right and have i did this application and that means they're not available for other repair jobs. who and i have a complete big. but what's the deal now is an electric cock going to cost me less or more than a combustion engine vehicle? in 2022, mr. kyle 7 out of tech of that question. the total cost for owning an electric call versus the costs of owning a fossil fuel cap and the results when the same for every contact. for example, when you look at small costs versus s u, v t. enter there, the price difference, which we identified for the small and for the many cost segment were significantly higher as for the middle class and the s u v segment. and that's why they had a hard time, let's say,
8:45 am
to achieve the cost beneficial situation over the years. so it's molly bees, a lot more expensive than the combustion engine count, deposit according to crowds analysis. but that's another big factor which impacts the total cost of ownership. if you have, for example, access to a private ball box at your home and or fix it, some blood work and might be able to charge it there for a large majority of your trips that you are making. and you have, for example, a photo of, of type installation on your roof, then it might be factor or 3 better then this, this, the energy price scenario. so in the middle class, the benefits would be about 10 to 12000 years over 15 years, which is quite right much. so the best option is to buy a mid range cost and charge at home, or at work if you can, relying on the public charging points,
8:46 am
increases the overall costs. and total costs for these, as with gasoline models depend on the model so much cheaper than a combustion ends in others. not when it comes to products like steel, aluminum, or whiskey. competition on the global market is massive. with countries also want to protect their innovative technologies and domestic markets from the competition . one way to do that is terrence. what are punitive tariffs, punitive tariffs are cesar country can levy on the import of certain goods. they are a way to protect the domestic industry or economy from global competition. and they are sometimes used when trade relations with other countries becomes strange. for example, if wages are low or in country, even in country,
8:47 am
be the products manufactured in country a are generally cheaper raising a tire fund imported goods from country a wouldn't make their goods more expensive. and to level the playing field. consumers in country be may then be more likely to buy from local producers. punitive tariffs can also be used to fight against dumping, for example, selling at an artificially low cost. if a branch of industry receives government subsidies, its products gain a competitive advantage on the market over those that do not. punitive tariffs are intended to protects domestic industry in the countries where there are no such subsidies. they can also serve as political leverage. but if tensions between countries escalate, a trade war can occur. a customs union such as the european union, protects its members from such problems. free trade agreements also enabled the import and export of goods without surcharges. this can also boost the domestic
8:48 am
economy. protecting the domestic economy with subsidies or punitive tariffs on imported products can intensifying global competition and it's actually destroying some industries in other countries. like in indonesia, for example, the autopay solving seems cisco longer as busy as usual currently on the fly fortress created. but normally the small sized government industry has 50 workers, sorry, is one of the lucky few who comes to work here for mother of to this makes a lot how about the last one? yeah, come in and most of course i'm worried about being laid off. i have 2 children. i usually earn up to 900000 group as for a week. now it's at most $200000.00. now it's very quiet when working. i come at the moment. good. i'm good. yeah,
8:49 am
i thought you might not gonna get okay. you don't need us to excel and government industries are in deep trouble. thousands of textile workers were laid off from january to june. one of the main costs us is an influx of cheap. china is like style products of the $8000.00 small and medium textile industry. businesses registered in our network, probably hundreds of thousands of walk us out of work, and that's on the, in west java that up. this is worry and they have too many cheetham projects, notes that are killing the industry. most of them are from china and whatnot. and tied them caused by the questionnaire. see for the import tariffs, regulation be implemented and how effective would it be to get through any of the bank statement using government is considering imposing powers of up to 200 percent on certain china is to make products to protect the domestic industry. from dumb peach tree good by western countries,
8:50 am
trade war with between since 2090 thirty's expect solid factories in southeast asia, st. largest economy have shut down operations. others suffered massive layoffs including the sex calculating the factory in with java. that's one of the worst affected areas. the problem is thousands of containers of ready to wear. clothing are ready to enter the country. those containers get to you without safe got regulation. it will be very dangerous. increasing import tariffs as a must to protect industry and the domestic market. the textile industry will not survive in 2024. there is no concrete intervention from the government. in doing so, they don't need and government implemented an emergency exit plan which led to the backlog of over 26000 containers by the up through the sky at major ports in jakarta. and sort of by the government is also working to click done on legal imports, which has worse and the situation. however,
8:51 am
many in the industry are concerned about the potential consequences often new type plan. yeah. in this, in the game and the found it's very react to the fuel need. let's remove that could trigger backlash if china dust retaliate over and pull losing. hi tara, this on only one country can be seen as a discrimination of trade. don't forget that some of our clothing industry that still needs chinese roll takes title materials in the next year. many textile workers who feared a treat for is coming at you one of 300 employees who lost her job at a tech cell factory in bundle west. java has never seen such dire circumstances in her 18 years in the industry. she fears things, we'll get boys before they get better back or why not? i said good. yeah. so i'm lined up. i'm glad i worked for 18 years, but when the company went bankrupt, i was not given my rights 6 months salary and severance pay have not been paid. i
8:52 am
used to get around $200.00 heroes per month. but now even 50 euros is very difficult because i'm now living in a room with 2 people in the sporting house because i can't afford to pay for now. and she is preparing food for us to install to make ends meet the 40 years old leaves don't use just fix out industry meets for reform. even if such change comes too late for her. what are the options for avoiding high tariffs on imported products? well, one solution is to become less reliant on imports. indonesia is trying to do just fast. the country used to source a large part of its sugar and vile ethanol requirements from other countries. but now the focus is turning to domestic production. the next 3 months will be hard for what?
8:53 am
a 100 plus, whatever kind of defense, 12 hours a day cutting sugar. again, this feels in your own material helping denisia and it's patients to become the next press. you can see that the less likely on bio f, a know as a fuel source. no, that is good news. i know something i will be happy if the plantation expands, so i don't have to look for another job to make ends meet. i hope the sugar effect so we can operate smoothly because it will affect my income to provide for my family. the sugar is processed into spectra. $1000.00 trucks come every day. the products are sugar and well i said, we just didn't start it to bite. you still wants to blend 10 percent bite with no into all it's gasoline by 2030. but to do that, a lot more sugarcane is needed. the problem is farmers are reluctant,
8:54 am
fast industry 3 but yep, we'll have to have them buy me. yeah. menu, sugar cane farms that has been changed into housing sites and many farm us prefer more of the profitable crops. we're trying to support them so that they can stay in the sugar business. we try to facilitate the time the procurement of such a lives as good seats and also financial support you young by goose would be under the providing this victory here has a clear idea of what needs to happen to catch things. this is where the on the green gasoline myisha is being purchased. the factory make 5 times to buy a peasant. but they're only clients is to stay on the gas company for time. you know, they don't need much of the product. alicia so far only has a 5 percent buy it with a no mix of vailable have gas station. i mean that's everything must be my side.
8:55 am
i'm also off. i thought i cool that the original tory framework around the and tie by us another project is not yet in place. the video ment from fuel produces a so low simply because there are no rules requiring them to offer a bio with an old product. if this came, we will go full in production and so all the buy with and the only if there is enough pro material renditions like this one, a java are set to go for a couple lessons to government events to do big and open 700000 heck, there's of new sugar in patients at the moment, the board and costs of the country super gasoline is important. creating self sufficiency and his sector will actually solve 2 problems at
