Abstract
The fight against climate change and air pollutant concentration is nowadays one of the biggest challenges for most of the large cities in the world. An emerging technology, the Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), offers a great power to contribute to clean the air, decarbonize the cities, and reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. But on the far side of the Moon we can find that what people call zero emissions or low carbon vehicles (less than 50 gCO2eq/km) do not fit well with the concept of Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) and even with BEVs. This is because the energy consumed by these electric propelled vehicles comes from a battery, mostly a Li-ion one, that has to be filled with electricity produced from different (renewable or not) sources, as it occurs in many European countries. The aim of this work is to evaluate the environmental consequences of changing to an electrified mobility and also to shed light to this controversy, highly influenced by technological, political, social, and market aspects.
