Given that the U.S. government isn't letting Americans purchase Chinese cars, the U.S. shouldn't get to comment on the trade implications of Chinese car production.

The other governments shouldn't be cooperating with them either. This reeks of the typical usa anti-china propaganda, as well as the promotion/continuation of dirty fuel sources.

There are a lot of sites suggesting that China has overdone it, but these days it is impossible to know what is the truth, and most people still drive internal combustion, and don't have solar, so...

So, your own politicians won't let China help pay for your stuff?

OK...

i have a BYD and solar, works well

V2G is currently unaffordable to me. I didn't know why the Aus government didn't push it more than the recent rebate for batteries.

I use V2G for the very occasional power outage
