Falling costs, cheap capital and supportive politicians helped propel a headlong rush into renewable power. As relations with China deteriorate, the United States and Europe are increasingly concerned about the country’s grip on parts of the green energy supply chain. In recent roundtable discussions moderated by Breakingviews on both sides of the Atlantic, participants expressed optimism about the momentum of investment in green energy. The IRA has unleashed a green energy boom. The world can ill afford to relax its embrace of green power.

SOROWAKO, Indonesia, March 30 (Reuters) - U.S. carmaker Ford Motor Co (F.N) signed a final investment agreement with PT Vale Indonesia (INCO.JK), and China's Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt on Thursday to build nickel processing plant, valued at around $4.5 billion. Indonesia, which has the biggest nickel reserve in the world, has been trying to develop downstream industries for the metal, with ambitions to eventually produce batteries and electric vehicles. Vale and Huayou commenced construction of the plant in November. Thursday's signing was a follow up to a non-binding memorandum of cooperation for the plant that the three companies had signed last year. Indonesia's government has from 2020 banned export of unprocessed nickel ore to ensure supply for existing and potential investors.
