However, as sustainability is central to the mission of the EV industry, we need to hold ourselves to much higher standards than those of past transportation technologies, and there’s a long way to go before we have a true circular supply chain for batteries. Developing and scaling more sustainable recycling methods is a high priority.

Moreover, I’m concerned about the environment and eco-friendly transportation. By integrating EVs with renewable energy generation, such as solar or wind power, it becomes possible to reduce reliance on non-renewable energy sources and create a more sustainable transportation ecosystem. A petrol car has an efficiency of 28%.

But the impact is way lesser than what it takes to drill, extract, transport, refine and burn oil. So as you can see there is absolutely no comparison, an ICE car emits insane amounts of GHG’s compared to EV’s and we have not even featured ICE car manufacturing emissions in the discussion. No EV owner denies this.

The proper comparison between vehicle types is the “wells-to-wheels” basis, where the pollution from extracting the raw materials, shipping, transformation (e.g. The grid is getting cleaner each year , and will continue to do so as we replace fossil power plants with renewables, while a gasoline car gets dirtier as it ages.

At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. The car can refuel during periods of low demand on the grid, and if equipped with a bi-directional charger, can actually replenish the grid with excess energy gleaned from a renewable resource.

In comparison, traditional combustion engines take longer to get engine-generated power to the wheels and might need to rev up in order to reach maximum torque. Are EVs really cleaner & greener choices? The short answer is yes, electrified transport really is ‘greener’ and paves the way for a more sustainable future.

Once weve consolidated everything to depend on the grid, we can clean up everything by cleaning up the grid. Once electric cars are more common, demand for electricity will rise, and electricity producers will have to look at big generators such as dams, nuclear stations or decentralised wind turbines that feed in to the grid.

Hit the jump for a comparison that includes plenty of pics and video. Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. The method that should seem most natural is charging at home.
