How PHEVs and EVs Will Sabotage America's Drive for Energy Independence

This article assumes that battery pack production will remain at current levels despite changes in the market.

It is more likely (certain ?) that battery production will increase in line with PHEV/EV vehicle production - and subsequent economies of scale and efficiencies will do what it always does - drive down price.
