It is, however, a challenge that is being made all the greater as we continue to decentralize power generation with more distributed, variable and inflexible sources, such as wind and solar. One example is diesel and natural gas generators, that are plugged into local transformers. 100% wind and solar is not feasible on its own.

Battery electric cars emit less greenhouse gases and air pollutants over their entire life cycle than petrol and diesel cars, according to a European Environment Agency (EEA) report. Shifting to electric vehicles could also reduce noise pollution, especially in cities where speeds are generally low and traffic often stands still.
