Results from the study also suggest that with sufficient coal plant retirement and sufficient wind power, controlled charging could result in positive net benefits instead of negative. Reduction in annual generation cost and external emissions costs due to controlled charging compared to uncontrolled charging ($2010).

Scientists and engineers have extended the range of EVs by cramming ever more energy into their batteries, and vehicle charging networks have expanded in many countries. 70 percent of lithium-ion batteries are produced in China, which derived 64 percent of its electricity from coal in 2020. But coal use varies, even within China.
