It occurred in the wake of the California electricity crisis of 2000 and 2001, when mismanaged deregulation, market manipulation, and environmental catastrophe combined to unhinge the power grid. Once electricity is generated and passes into the grid, it is typically used almost immediately. After earning a Ph.D.

As the world grapples with the pressing issue of climate change, it is evident that we need swift action to avert its worst impacts. 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.
