“E-mobility fact check”

Institute for Applied Ecology (Ö-Բپٳܳ)

The Institute for Applied Ecology (Ö-Բپٳܳ) has published a fact check answering frequently asked questions on electro-mobility. Questions include ‘Do e-vehicles have a positive carbon footprint over the course of their life span, compared to conventional cars?’ [], ‘How much power will e-mobility need in the future?’ [relatively little need in short term, or 4 percent of today’s total German power consumption, more in the long term – 20 percent of today’s consumption], and ‘Is e-mobility an option for freight transport as well?’ [yes, much needed, but a big challenge].
