>In fact, electric vehicles will only help if the electricity powering it was generated from renewable sources which is a significant fraction in certain countries but not most. That statement is false. If an EV is run on electricity generated from coal only, the overall emissions output is close to that of a comparable ICE car [0]. Introduce some friendlier methods into the mix and your beating ICE by quite a margin. The main source of emissions from an EV come from the manufacturing process. Even those can be significantly reduced when proper methods are applied. [0] https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesellsmoor/2019/05/20/are-el... |
