Determinants of electric vehicle emissions savings and costs across locations and individuals (opens in new tab)  8 articles covering this post

Electric vehicles (EVs) such as plug-in hybrid and battery EVs (PHEVs and BEVs) promise to lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). However, these emission reductions depend on regional and individual factors, which have been considered largely in isolation from one another and separately from costs. Here, we evaluate how current electricity mixes, driving behaviors, climatic conditions, prices, and fees affect lifecycle emissions and ownership c...
