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.

What is Electrification of Transportation?

Driivz

Sounds simple, but it’s more complicated than just replacing internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles with electric vehicles (EVs). The total emission reduction from electrification also depends on the source of the electricity that is powering EVs, and that depends on location. Clean electricity makes a difference.
