EVs and PHEVs can only be as ‘green’ as the electricity used to charge their batteries. Recent results from EV trials show a typical carbon dioxide emissions rating to be around 100g/km, when the car is charged from a typical power supply in the UK. Electric Vehicles: charged with potential”. Professor Kemp.
