　政府が電気自動車（ＥＶ）など次世代産業のカギとなる蓄電池について、国内への工場建設などを支援する新たな補助金制度を設けることが１７日、分かった。１９日決定の新たな経済対策に盛り込んだ上で、２０２１年度補正予算案に１０００億円規模を計上する方向だ。世界的に蓄電池の重要性が高まり競争が激しくなる中、国内の製造基盤を強化することで安定確保を図るのが狙い。（2021/11/17-20:43）

The government is planning to set up a new subsidy program to support the construction of storage battery plants in Japan, it was learned Wednesday.
   The government is expected to include the plan in the new economic stimulus package to be adopted on Friday and set aside some 100 billion yen for the program in a draft fiscal 2021 supplementary budget.
   At a time of intensifying competition over storage batteries, seen as key for electronic vehicles and other next-generation industries, the government hopes to secure stable supplies by strengthening domestic production bases.
   For decarbonization, the government aims to limit domestic new passenger car sales to electrified models, such as electronic vehicles and hybrid vehicles, by 2035.
   The planned subsidy program is in line with this plan.
