This must be a day that ends in "y".

Part of the problem, is the analysis is a moving target,
and some of the assumptions are years out of date.

"The 2017 study claimed that the production of EV batteries emits
around 150 and 200 kg of CO2 per kWh. However, a new study,
summarized in a recent press release from IVL, showed the amount
of CO2 emissions from battery production has been reduced to
between 61 and 106 kg of CO2 equivalent per kWh."

Another variable, is the type of batteries used. The Model 3
produced for the Chinese market uses lithium iron phosphate
(fairy lamp) batteries, while the North America version
uses lithium cobalt (laptop) batteries. And maybe this suits
the domestic battery production industry.
