This can be accomplished by building upon the above EV and ICE vehicle policy recommendations, coupled with 100 percent methane capture, retiring all coal-fired electric generation as well as converting the US electric grid with 80 percent clean energy by 2030. Grey hatched areas indicate regions where gaps in utility grid data exist.

Lithium-ion battery recycling took a big step forward this week, as a Hawaiian utility announced it is undertaking one of the biggest examples of grid-storage recycling in North America to date. By electric grid standards, Anahola’s 4-megawatt-hour storage facility is not big. So the idea is, buy it once and keep it here.”

Scientists inform us that today’s transportation sector is the largest contributor to US greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change, but how clean are lithium-ion batteries? Whereas, battery EVs fueled on average grid electricity emit 105–124 g CO2 eq./km, Green Energy Ohio plant in Dayton, OH. km over their lifetime.

Most automotive manufacturers say they plan to use renewable energy in the future, but for now, most battery production relies on electric grids largely powered by fossil fuels. That’s why operating EVs typically releases less carbon than operating gasoline vehicles of similar size, even in coal-heavy grids like Shandong or West Virginia.
