The idea that a wholesale switch to electric cars would automatically reduce CO2 emissions and dependence on oil is one of a number of myths dispelled by a major new report conducted on behalf of the Environmental Transport Association (ETA). Popularity. On-board metering of electricity use would be a key requirement.

Its like having a second fuel tank that you always use first -- only you fill up at home, from a regular outlet, at an equivalent cost of under $1/gallon. This means the more maintenance-free electrical systems of PHEVs offset the initial higher cost of batteries. You dont have to plug it in.

His analysis found that the programme is paying nearly 10 times the projected price of carbon credits per ton in the best-case scenario.

Annual use of an EV should be less than the average cost of $8,000 per year for using a gasoline in many countries including the USA. Millions of EVs and PHEVs would expand the sale of electricity as an alternative to oil. Pre-paid 600 kilometer cards are one approach that is suggested. It would be a financial win-win for all.
