Battery electric cars emit less greenhouse gases and air pollutants over their entire life cycle than petrol and diesel cars, according to a European Environment Agency (EEA) report. The EEA has also published a new briefing on the environmental and climate impacts of transport. g CO 2 /km) since 2012.

The emission reduction potential is most significant for light-duty vehicles and heavy-duty vehicles, with other contributions coming from shipping, aviation and biofuels. GtCO 2 /year (light duty vehicles) by 2030. This has raised hopes that emissions have peaked, as they must by 2020 to remain on a successful climate trajectory.

However, although the state has made considerable progress decoupling economic growth from greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the rate of emissions decline appears to be slowing, due in part to a spike in transportation emissions attributed to an increase from light-duty vehicles. But the effects of these efforts seem to be reaching a plateau.

From the researchers’ point of view, this underlines the need to further reduce emissions of soot that is harmful to health and the climate, as the carbon-containing particles still contribute to health hazards and climate warming even over distances of several hundred kilometers.
