London, June 24 (Reuters) - British Tyre Startup Enso Said on Monday That It Has Signed a Letter of Interest With the U.S. Export-Import Bank to Build a $500 Million U.S. Plant That When Fully Operational Should Be Able to Make 20 Million Tyres for Electric Vehicles Annually.
倫敦，6月24日（路透社）— 英國輪胎初創公司恩索週一表示，它已與美國進出口銀行簽署了一份意向書，將在美國建造一座耗資5億美元的工廠，該工廠全面投入運營後應能夠每年生產2000萬個電動汽車輪胎。
The Company Said That by 2027 the Plant Should Employ 600 People and Produce 5 Million Tyres Annually, Adding That Potential Locations for the Plant Include Colorado, Nevada, Texas, and Georgia, With "Other States in Consideration".
該公司表示，到2027年，該工廠將僱用600名員工，每年生產500萬個輪胎，並補充說，該工廠的潛在地點包括科羅拉多州、內華達州、德克薩斯州和喬治亞州，“其他州也在考慮之中”。
Enso Said It Aims to Recycle All of the Tyres It Produces in the United States. the Company Did Not Provide a Target Date for Reaching Full Production.
恩索表示，其目標是回收其在美國生產的所有輪胎。該公司沒有提供全面生產的目標日期。
"With Strong Regulatory Support and a Significant Market Opportunity, We Are Committed to Bringing Our Innovative, Low-Emission, Low-Cost Tyres to American Consumers," Enso CEO Gunnlaugur Erlendsson Said in a Statement.
恩索首席執行官Gunnlaugur Erlendsson在一份聲明中說：“憑藉強有力的監管支持和重要的市場機會，我們致力於爲美國消費者提供創新、低排放、低成本的輪胎。”
Enso Said Technology Partner Rockwell Automation Rok.n and Venture Capital Funds 8090 Industries and Galway Sustainable Capital Are Also Providing Support for the New Plant.
恩索說，技術合作夥伴羅克韋爾自動化 rok.n 風險投資基金8090 Industries和高威可持續資本也爲新工廠提供支持。
Enso Has Developed Tyres Specifically for Evs, Which Can Increase Their Range by 10% and Reduce Particulate Matter Emissions by 35%.
恩索已經開發了專門用於電動汽車的輪胎，可以將其續航里程增加10％，並將顆粒物排放減少35％。
The Company Already Sells Tyres in Britain and Will Launch U.S. Sales This Year.
該公司已經在英國銷售輪胎，並將於今年在美國開始銷售。
When Tyres Make Contact With the Road, Tiny Particles Are Abraded and Emitted. the Extra Weight of Evs Linked to Their Batteries Means They Emit More Particles, a Problem That Is Growing With the Rising Number of Evs on the Road.
當輪胎與道路接觸時， 微小粒子 會被磨損和排放。與電池相關的電動汽車的額外重量意味着它們會釋放更多的顆粒，隨着電動汽車上路數量的增加，這個問題越來越嚴重。
The European Union and the State of California Have Announced Rules Designed to Curb Those Tyre Emissions.
歐盟和加利福尼亞州已經宣佈了旨在遏制這些情況的規則 輪胎排放。
The United States Has Also Passed the Inflation Reduction Act, Which Has Minimum Local Production Requirements for Automakers' Evs to Qualify for Government Subsidies.
美國也通過了 減少通貨膨脹法，它對汽車製造商的電動汽車有資格獲得政府補貼的最低本地生產要求。
