How EVs Are Reducing Carbon (CO2) Emissions

Blink Charging

One avenue to combat this crisis is a rapid reduction in carbon emissions from our daily transportation, one of the leading contributors of CO 2 emissions. The upstream, “well to wheel” emissions of the EV are linked to electricity generation and the electrical grid, with lower emissions in regions that use more renewable energy sources.

Smart Charging: How AI and IoT are Transforming EV Charging

Get Electric Vehicle

This not only helps users save on costs by avoiding peak energy periods but also aids in balancing the grid’s load and integrating more renewable energy sources. For instance, AI can schedule charging when there is a surplus of solar or wind energy available, leading to a more sustainable energy consumption pattern.
