This can be accomplished by building upon the above EV and ICE vehicle policy recommendations, coupled with 100 percent methane capture, retiring all coal-fired electric generation as well as converting the US electric grid with 80 percent clean energy by 2030. Grey hatched areas indicate regions where gaps in utility grid data exist.

If it’s manufactured on a ‘dirty’ power grid it becomes a major source of emissions over the EV lifecycle. While 80% of EV drivers globally charge their EV at home which can be done from inside your garage or carport with appropriate safety in place, there is still a need for public charging infrastructure.

Li-ion batteries currently are the indispensable enabling technology for electric vehicles and the electric grid, the latter due to the need to store energy from renewable sources. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) supplies about 70% of cobalt. This would have a considerable carbon footprint.

Most automotive manufacturers say they plan to use renewable energy in the future, but for now, most battery production relies on electric grids largely powered by fossil fuels. In 2019, 63 percent of global electricity was produced from fossil-fuel sources, the exact nature of which varies substantially among regions.

China continues to dominate BloombergNEF’s (BNEF) global lithium-ion battery supply chain ranking, for the third time in a row, for both 2022 and its projection for 2027, due to continued support for the electric vehicle demand and raw materials investments. Finland placed the highest in Europe and was ranked fourth in the overall rankings.
