Labor’s ambitious plans to reduce transport emissions will be dead in the water without regulatory CO2 emission standards and real financial and non-financial incentives for buyers.
Electric vehicles are taking off, but will demand remain sustainable once governments phase out subsidies? And as the “hidden costs” of the EV revolution emerge, some might get left behind…
Researchers have found a way to evaluate how energy-efficient electric vehicles are, and compare the sizes and costs of batteries for different models.
An Obama administration veteran offers some insights from his experience about driving massive increases in clean energy.
To encourage citizens to drive electric vehicles, governments must develop bold new strategies that bring charging stations home.
Until we cut consumption, we will only shift problems from one natural resource to another.
Ensuring that everyone doesn’t charge their cars simultaneously will make a big difference.
It’s unclear exactly what mix of technologies will drive the zero-emission vehicles of the future. But in terms of ‘well-to-wheel’ efficiency, electric batteries outperform hydrogen.
