On the other hand, fueling your EV at an electric station still impacts the environment. In the United States, the most widely available energy comes from fossil fuels, whether directly in the form of gas or indirectly through an electric port. ...
With respect to strategic and market perspectives as well as life cycle impacts of electric cars, their practicability in different segments of car sizes needs to be investigated (Table1). Car size is most important in BEV since battery size must grow in parallel to the vehicle's weight. Tabl...
Physical development of resorts, consumption of fuel by buildings, aircraft, trains, buses, taxis and cars, overuse of water resources, pollution by vehicle emissions, sewage and litter all contribute to substantial, often irreversible environmental degradation, as well as to dramatic social ...
Impact of fuel-economy shortfall: trends in technology-weighted EPA vs on-road MPG. Periodic analysis memorandum No. 1 The fuel consumption impacts of revised estimates of the shortfall between the EPA-measured and on-road fuel economy of light-duty vehicles (passenger cars... P Niederhoff,HN...
Due to the different power structures in different regions, the decarbonization capacity of the power sector is not consistent, and the environmental impacts are also discrepant. In the use stage, this work assumes that the EV travels in five different regions to analyze the influence of regional...
(directly and indirectly) and polluted –taking into account different types of water resources– and serves as a valuable tool for companies, policymakers, and individuals to understand and address their water-related impacts. There are evenonline calculatorsthat measure our individual footprints ...
This study investigates the energy and environmental impacts of banning the sale of traditional fossil fuel vehicles in China. By using the Logistic model, the dynamic evolution of China's vehicle market under different timing of banning the sale of traditional fuel vehicles was simulated. Based on...
In this paper, the environmental impacts and the financial costs of different vehicle technologies are calculated for an average Belgian driver. Environmentally friendly vehicles are compared with conventional petrol and diesel vehicles. The assessments are done from a life cycle perspective. The effect ...
