European consortium investigating graphene-based materials for lightweight cars; energy-efficient and safe vehicles

Green Car Congress

The researchers will explore the properties of graphene to determine how it behaves when used to enhance advanced composite materials used in the production of cars. As part of the work, a novel graphene-based polymer material will be investigated, modeled, and designed to enhance both vehicle and occupant safety while remaining very light.

What Part Do EVs Play in the Federal Net-Zero Emissions Target?

Clean Fleet Report

For example, Poland, Belarus and Serbia have committed to 2030 net-zero emissions to increase sustainability. For example, in late 2021, the Biden Administration issued an executive order mandating most federal government cars to be zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) by 2035. However, the tide is turning toward battery-electric cars.
