The UK: A low carbon location to manufacture, drive and recycle Electric Vehicles
Abstract:
Electric vehicles (EVs) have much lower life cycle carbon emissions than petrol and diesel vehicles using internal combustion engines (ICE). Carbon emissions over the EV life cycle are falling fast as the UK electricity grid is decarbonised and the UK moves towards Net Zero. Total life cycle carbon emissions of a medium-sized battery EV will be about one-quarter of a petrol car sold in 2025, with UK-manufactured EV batteries 12% greener than the European average.
