How clean is EV battery manufacturing?

Electric Auto Association

This is 2 to 3 times lower than the 150-200kg of CO2eq estimate measured by the same researchers in 2017. This 2017 study has been used by anti-EV commentators to discredit the climate performance of EVs. Batteries get a second lease on life in stationary storage applications that connect large numbers of batteries together.
