As part of the analysis, DOS commissioned a detailed study of greenhouse gas life-cycle emissions that compared Canadian oil sands crude with other selected reference crudes. This range is equivalent to annual greenhouse gas emissions from the combustion of fuels in 588,000 to 4,061,000 passenger vehicles. —FEIS. The pipeline.

Fortunately, to improve this issue, battery makers are working towards more responsible supply chains , and have the potential for cheaper, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly energy storage in the near future. If it’s manufactured on a ‘dirty’ power grid it becomes a major source of emissions over the EV lifecycle.
