What is Decarbonization?

Driivz

Replacing internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles with battery electric vehicles (BEVs) — called electrification — is the only way to substantially reduce CO2 emissions in the transportation sector. BEVs fueled on today’s average grid electricity are 105-124 g CO2/km. BEVs fueled by a fully renewable grid go down to 41 g CO2/km.
