This week, a new report prepared for the UK Department for Transport found that electric vehicles are greener across their lifecycle than their gas-fueled internal combustion engine (ICE) counterparts. Specifically, lifecycle modeling analysis found that a typical battery electric car is estimated to save up to 65% more greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than a conventional petrol car. But is the research a win for electric vehicle manufacturing or a starting point for really getting stuff done? Let’s find out. Most emissions in EVs occur during production EV vehicle manufacturing –especially battery development — currently results in high levels of greenhouse…
