Environmental Benefits and Challenges of Electric Vehicles

Main Article Content

Abstract

Increasing carbon emissions and the price of oil are the two biggest challenges confronting the world's main transport systems. Because they don't consume oil and don't contribute to climate change, electric cars (EVs) are becoming more popular. Although EVs have many advantages, there are still a number of operational concerns that must be resolved before they can be widely used. A number of advantages of electric vehicles are detailed in this study, including the fact that they help lower pollution levels and carbon emissions. Also covered are the problems and obstacles that have prevented their widespread use, such as the expensive infrastructure, lack of charging stations, concerns about running out of juice, and poor battery performance. Improving the charging infrastructure, adding more stations, using battery swapping procedures, and developing better battery technology to alleviate range anxiety and decrease charging times are all possible ways to tackle these difficulties. Tax credits and subsidies, as well as investments in a reliable charging infrastructure, are two ways that governments may encourage the purchase of electric vehicles. Governments and industry leaders can work together to solve these problems and increase the use of electric vehicles, which helps lower pollution levels and carbon emissions.
