BYD, Other EV Battery Makers Face More Pressure to Cut Emissions

Electric vehicle battery suppliers, including BYD Co. and EVE Energy Co., need to step up efforts to switch to clean power at manufacturing sites and curb emissions in supply chains, according to environmental group Greenpeace.

The nonprofit’s review of action on emissions in the sector found seven out of 10 major lithium-ion battery producers lacked clear targets for progress in at least one of two key areas — adoption of renewables and the climate footprint of their suppliers.
