Electric vehicles (EVs) represent one of the most promising advancements in green technology.
By replacing fossil fuel-burning engines with electric motors, EVs offer a practical solution to reducing transportation-related carbon emissions and air pollution.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why EV car better than Usual car ?  

Are electric cars better for the environment?

The major benefit of electric cars is the contribution that they can make towards improving air quality in towns and cities. With no tailpipe, pure electric cars produce no carbon dioxide or other harmful emissions when driving. This reduces air pollution considerably.

Put simply, electric cars give us cleaner streets making our towns and cities a better place to be for pedestrians and cyclists. In over a year, just one electric car on the roads can save an average 1.5 million grams of CO2. That’s the equivalent of four return flights from London to Barcelona.


  

Compare an electric vs petrol car

Research by the International Energy Agency (IEA)shows that electric vehicles come with a significantly lower total carbon output per vehicle lifetime than a typical Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) powered vehicle. As electricity generation continues to get cleaner, this position can only improve over time.

How does electric car production affect the environment? 

- Making electric cars does use a lot of energy. Even after taking battery manufacture into account, electric cars are still a greener option. This is because of the reduction in emissions created over the car’s lifetime

- The emissions created during the production of an electric car tend to be higher than a conventional car. This is due to the manufacture of lithium ion batteries which are an essential part of an electric car. More than a third of the lifetime CO2 emissions from an electric car come from the energy used to make the car itself. As technology advances, this is changing for the better. 

- Reusing and recycling batteries is also a growing market. Research into the use of second-hand batteries is looking at ways to reuse batteries in new technologies such as electricity storage. One day we could all have batteries in our homes being used to store our own energy. Opportunities like this will reduce the lifetime environmental impact of battery manufacture

 

 

 

 

 

Over the past few years, there have been considerable developments in EV technology, making these vehicles more viable and attractive for everyday use. One of the significant advancements is in battery technology. Modern lithium-ion batteries are lighter, charge faster, and hold a charge longer than their older counterparts, which enhances the range and performance of electric vehicles.

Another notable development is the growing network of charging stations. The availability of charging infrastructure is crucial for the widespread adoption of EVs. Today, fast-charging stations that can recharge an electric vehicle’s battery in less time than it takes to fill a conventional car’s gas tank are becoming increasingly common.
