The principle of continuous improvement will remain at the heart of the strategy to reduce CO 2 emissions and increase resource efficiency. I firmly believe the fight against climate change and how we use resources will decide the future of our society—and of the BMW Group. For a fleet of around 2.5 degree goal.

Many countries have met their climate goals and are on track to be completely carbon neutral. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. The process emits about 10 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of hydrogen.

BEVs do not have an internal combustion engine and produce zero tailpipe emissions. The electric motor assists the engine during acceleration and deceleration, reducing fuel consumption and emissions. It typically consists of numerous individual battery cells connected to provide the required voltage and capacity.
