PDF Electric vehicles: Literature review of technology costs and carbon
ELECTRIC VEHICLES: LITERATURE REVIEW OF TECHNOLOGY COSTS AND CARBON EMISSIONS 2 INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL ON CLEAN TRANSPORTATION WORKING PAPER 2016-14 based on former analyses, and are updated and refined with real-world fuel consumption levels. Real-world fuel consumption is commonly about 20%-40% higher than official type-approval measurements.
Electric Vehicles: Literature review of technology costs and carbon
A lower-carbon grid and higher power train efficiency by 2020 could cut average electric vehicle emissions by another third. However, reductions in costs and CO 2 emission will not be achieved without targeted policy intervention. More stringent CO 2 standards, as well as fiscal and non-fiscal incentives for electric vehicles, can help the ...
Electric Vehicles: Literature review of technology costs and carbon
In order to help inform this debate about how electric vehicle technology could fit in a lower-carbon 2020-2030 new vehicle fleet in Europe, this paper focuses on collecting, analyzing, and aggregating the avai lable research literature on the underlying technology costs and carbon emissions.
PDF Electric vehicles: Literature review of technology costs and carbon
The authors assume 2010 costs of the fuel cell to be about €40 per kW, due to a hypothetical large-scale production of 300,000 units per year. This would imply a total cost of about €3,600 for a 90 kW fuel cell. HFCEV batteries are assumed to cost about €1,010 per kWh in 2010, and €770-€780 per kWh in 2015.
Electric vehicles : literature review of technology costs and carbon
The collected cost data is used to estimate the technology cost for automotive lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries and fuel cells. The cost of battery packs for BEVs declined to an estimated €250 per kWh for industry leaders in 2015. Further cost reductions down to as low as €130—€180 per kWh are anticipated in the 2020—25 time frame.
Electric Vehicles: Literature review of technology costs and carbon
Figure 8. Cost breakdown of different power trains for a 2030 lower medium car. Assumed battery production volume is ~500,000+ units, fuel cell system production is ~50,000 for the typical case and ~100,000 for the low-cost case. Circles represent total incremental costs over a 2010 ICEV. - "Electric Vehicles: Literature review of technology costs and carbon emissions"
Electric vehicle lifecycle carbon emission reduction: A review
Based on the average historical data of vehicles (including passenger cars and commercial vehicles) carbon emissions from 2012 to 2021, for every additional one million EVs, the lifecycle carbon emissions in road transport will be reduced by 7.28 million tons and direct carbon emissions from fuel combustion will be reduced by 12.8 million tons.

Impact of Using Electric Vehicle on Carbon Emission
In order to reduce carbon emissions, electric vehicles began to be produced and promoted. Electric vehicles have the potential to reshape the transportation sector across the world, drastically cutting carbon emissions and clearing the way for significant climate progress. Many organizations have adopted electric vehicles (EV s) for their fleets as a result of rising fuel expenses and a push ...
PDF Carbon Policy and the Emissions Implications of Electric Vehicles
This erodes the emission reduction bene ts from electric vehicles. Of course, the moderate carbon price leads to less coal generation overall{but the key point is that coal generation is more likely to be on the margin in this scenario. Panel (d) of Figure 1 shows a case where the carbon price is much larger.

Combined with the cost reductions of electric vehicle batteries and renewable power plants, our assumed carbon price leads to reductions of direct CO 2 emissions on the order of 76-84% in 2050 ...
How Much Do Electric Drive Vehicles Matter to Future U.S. Emissions
Hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery electric vehicles—known collectively as electric drive vehicles (EDVs)—may represent a clean and affordable option to meet growing U.S. light duty vehicle (LDV) demand. The goal of this study is 2-fold: identify the conditions under which EDVs achieve high LDV market penetration in the U.S. and quantify the associated change in CO2, SO2, and NOX ...
