This dissertation presents an analysis of the impacts of electric vehicles in economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions in the European Union. It was executed a micro panel with annual data from 2008 to 2016, and two models were estimated using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model....
Electric cars’ impact on air pollution isn’t as straightforward as you might think. The vehicles themselves pollute only slightly less than a gasoline car because their massive batteries and consequent weight leads to more particulate pollution from gre...

As our share of electric cars creep into the low single digit percentages, the visibility will have a positive effect of informing and convincing others that the time is right to impact the environment positively by switching to an EV. 4. Reduction In Dependence On Natural gas and Gasoline/Oil...
For instance, China had established strong federal-fleet-emission targets and created a system in which OEMs received emission credits for passenger cars, based on various features, such as energy efficiency and vehicle range. In addition to those policies, the...
Toyota, blasting past 10 million hybrid sales worldwide, has dabbled in both plug-in hybrids and all-electric cars, but is focused on fuel cell electric cars, which use hydrogen to produce electricity on board and power the electric motors. The company also continues to promise volume EVs fo...
The IEA'sGlobal Electric Vehicle Outlook 2021shows that, despite the pandemic setting off a cascade of economic recessions, a record 3 million new electric cars were registered in 2020. That is a 41 percent increase from the previous year. ...
“It is very clear that the automotive future in passenger cars is electric. There is no alternative to decarbonize the passenger car transport sector effectively. There will be a small share of fuel cells later in this decade, but it's clear and it's the industry consensus that the most...
A worldwide shift from fossil fuel-powered cars to electric vehicles could significantly reduce the amount of carbon dioxide that humans emit to the atmosphere. But current strategies for vehicle electrification (电气化) can also shift some pollution to communities already suffering under higher econom...
the reduction in O3is noteworthy. Despite similar operating conditions to electric taxis, online ride-hailing cars are comparatively more efficient, consuming 36% less fuel and producing 44% fewer hydrocarbons41. Thus, while they contribute positively to air quality, they also generate additional poll...
