Acerca deste livro eletrónico

Electric Car Energy Use examines the multifaceted impacts of electric vehicles (EVs) on our environment and energy infrastructure, moving beyond simple celebrations of green technology. It addresses the crucial question of whether EVs genuinely alleviate environmental issues or merely shift the burden. The book clarifies essential concepts like battery capacity and charging rates, providing a foundation for understanding the complexities surrounding electric mobility. For example, transitioning to EVs without a parallel shift to renewable energy could increase overall carbon emissions. This book uniquely emphasizes that the environmental benefits of EVs depend on the sources of electricity powering them. It analyzes the electricity grid's capacity to handle increased EV charging demands and models different charging scenarios, assessing their impact on grid stability. Furthermore, it employs lifecycle assessment (LCA) methodologies to examine the complete environmental impact of EVs, from battery production to end-of-life disposal. The book is structured into three sections, beginning with core technical aspects, then grid capacity analysis, followed by lifecycle environmental impacts. The book avoids hype by presenting evidence-based analyses, offering an unbiased view of the EV landscape for policymakers, energy professionals, and environmental advocates. By integrating perspectives from environmental science, engineering, and economics, the book provides a holistic view of the challenges and opportunities with EV adoption. It also evaluates the effectiveness of government incentives and regulations, providing readers with the knowledge to make informed decisions about sustainable transportation.
