THE EV SUPPLY CHAIN BLOCKERS
Within the supply chain are a multitude of disruptions that affect all related industries , but have been particularly responsible for the rate of growth seen in the fleet vehicle sector . Manufacturing electrified trucks and vans in large quantities has been hindered by a number of factors , including the general global disruptions that have had longlasting effects on worldwide operations , the shortage of semiconductors that has delayed a number of products , and the slow growth of mineral production that is crucial for reducing the cost of production .
However , it seems despite these events , that Volta Trucks has seen minimal setbacks in bringing its electrified delivery vehicles to the market .
