"The percentage of the value of the components contained in such battery that were manufactured or assembled in North America is equal to or greater than the applicable percentage" (50% for 2023) = $3750
the percentage of the value of the applicable critical minerals (as defined in section 45X(c)(6)) contained in such battery that were--
``(i) extracted or processed--
``(I) in the United States, or
``(II) in any country with which the United States has a free trade agreement in effect, or
``(ii) recycled in North America, is equal to or greater than the applicable percentage (as certified by the qualified manufacturer, in such form or manner as prescribed by the Secretary) (40% for 2023) = $3750 credit
So one is the battery components be manufactured in North America at 50% And the 2nd is the minerals inside must be 40% North America, or free trade country, or recycled in NA.
I think the first 50% components is doable, but the 40% no China or Russia thing on the source of the minerals is not going to be possible.
