Frankly I cant be bothered to go through it all again and clearly 45 years is utter madness and even the brain dead can see that. Rob, you failed to read your own source, and if you read it you would see that it fails to debunk anything. Here is your source, quoted in the Guardian article. https://www.epa.gov/greenvehicles/electric-vehicle-myths#Myth1 And notice the qualifier which they add to the graph. "Estimates shown2 from GREET 2 2021 are intended to be illustrative only. Estimates represent model year 2020. Emissions will vary based on assumptions about the specific vehicles being compared, EV battery size and chemistry, vehicle lifetimes, and the electricity grid used to recharge the EV, among other factors." In other words, results are different according to location of production. China is a different location than the UK, that is among the "other factors" ignored by your study.

"Given that China emits 600 grams of CO2 per kwh (China is where almost all of Norway's EV batteries are manufactured), we calculate Norway’s EV fleet would emit 21 mm tonnes of CO2. Norway’s gasoline and diesel consumption fell by a meager 3,200 barrels per day or 50 mm gallons per year. Assuming 9 kg of CO2 per gallon of gasoline or diesel, Norway’s entire EV fleet mitigates a mere 450,000 tonnes of CO2 per year, compared with an upfront emission of 21 mm tonnes. In other words, it would take forty-five years of CO2 savings from reduced gasoline and diesel consumption to offset the initial emissions from the manufacturing of the vehicles. Since an EV battery has a useful life of only ten to fifteen years, it is clear that Norway's EV rollout has increased total lifecycle CO2 emissions dramatically. Incredibly, this is true despite Norway having the lowest carbon hydroelectricity in the world. " Edited April 27 by Ecocharger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ecocharger + 1,474 DL April 29 Plastics are strong and getting stronger as economies progress. https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/The-Future-of-Plastics-Will-Determine-the-Future-of-Oil-Demand.html "Alternatives to plastic packaging could have a bigger emissions footprint, McKee argued. If this sounds familiar, it is probably because it smacks of the arguments made against the electrification of transport in light of all the raw material mining, refining, and processing inputs into EVs that cast a shadow over its zero-emission credentials. The simple truth is that plastics are used on such a massive scale because they are one, convenient, and two, cheap. Plastic ban advocates would need to come up with alternatives that can offer the same combination of convenience and price to stand a chance at succeeding with the bans on any meaningful scale." "Wind, solar, and EVs, not to mention hydrogen, have consistently failed to dethrone oil, gas, and even coal from their top spot in the global energy mix."

notsonice + 1,255 DM April 29 Clunkers are doomed along with Coal CleanTechnica CATL, BYD To Slash Battery Prices By 50% In 2024. BOOM! EVs Win! CATL says it will begin selling LFP battery cells in the VDA format at price less than $60 per kWh hour by the middle of this year. . Feb 26, 2024 Three things must happen for the EV revolution to be complete — cheaper batteries, faster charging batteries, and more EV chargers that actually work. CATL and BYD are both on a path to decrease battery prices this year by as much as 50%, meaning battery packs at the end of 2024 could cost half what they did at the end of 2023. CnEVPost reports that in order to secure its market position, CATL is sorting out production line resources and pushing for cost reductions that could drive the price of its VDA spec lithium iron phosphate battery cells down to RMB 0.4 per Wh. That translates to $56.47 per kWh hour. At that price, a 60 kWh battery that costs manufacturers $6,776.00 today will cost just $3,388 12 months from now, saving EV manufacturers over $3,000 per vehicle. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All a step in the right direction........Rome was not built in a day just 10 years ago EVs really were not feasible and the amount of public charging stations was close to none today charging stations are everywhere Batteries used to cost a fortune and now the price has dropped to make EVs equal on upfront purchase costs the same as Clunkers Charging stations are getting more numerous and faster....if they can bring it down to 10 minutes even the Luddite clunker owners will have nothing to bitch about when it comes to buying a new car How long does it take to fully charge an EV at a public charging station? It can take as little as 30 minutes or less to charge a typical electric car (60kWh battery) at a 150kW rapid charging station from empty-to-full.
