EVs won’t cut emissions without clean power grids, study finds
Switching to electric vehicles won’t significantly reduce carbon emissions unless countries also transition to cleaner electricity sources, according to a new study from the University of Auckland and Xiamen University in China.
Scientists are proposing a pneumatic propulsion system as an eco-friendly alternative to a diesel-powered ferry in Finland. Aside from its environmental benefits, the system has lower operational costs and a relatively short payback period.
