Opinion: Tackling problems of carbon emissions through electric vehicles to achieve COP 27 goals

The current goal of COP 27 is to focus on more adaptive measures to protect its citizens who are vulnerable to the consequences of climatic change where the world experiences more regular and severe floods, storms, fires, as well as other climate-related calamities. It is becoming increasingly clear that the world needs to focus more on more on adaptation measures to protect its citizens who are most vulnerable to the consequences of climate change.

Thus, in this blog, Future Market Insights discusses the solutions that are apt in reducing carbon emissions from lithium batteries.

• EV engines are more environmental-friendly compared to ICEs- EVs neither run-on fossil fuels nor do they require some of the components found in ICE vehicles. So, the carbon emissions, that were included in the manufacturing and production of the ICE parts, are being lowered to a great extent during the manufacturing of EVs implying that most EVs do not release carbon and other GHGs, which helps in minimizing air pollution.
• EVs to go for smart and flexible charging to decarbonize the grid- Grey electricity grid rely heavily on fossil fuels, reducing the efficacy of EVs as a means for consumers and businesses to reduce emissions. Therefore, it is critical to decarbonizing the existing grid as much as feasible in order to persuade purchasers that switching to an EV is profitable and decreases carbon emissions.
• Clean production and manufacturing facilities for the EV batteries- Lithium-ion batteries are a common power source for green technology like electric cars due to their capacity to store a lot of energy in a small amount of space, their charging capabilities, and their ability to continue functioning even after hundreds or thousands of charge cycles.

Conclusion

Increasing fuel prices with a desire for cleaner initiatives have pushed several businesses to shift to EVs. In addition to the cheaper fuel costs, EVs are a greener option than diesel or gas automobiles. They can lower a fleet's carbon and GHG emissions by eliminating exhaust. ICE cars, on the contrary, emit carbon dioxide and other pollutants every time their engine starts and is being used.
