  • Whither electric cars?

  • GIACOMO de SABATA
  • Journal:
    Environmental Conservation / Volume 24 / Issue 1 / March 1997
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    01 March 1997, p. 2

  • In a previous report I tried to show that the widespread use of electric cars, both battery-powered and so-called ‘hybrid’ types (i.e. vehicles utilizing an electric motor powered by a battery in town, and a combustion engine on open highways), would not reduce, but rather increase, air pollution, because the electricity required to run them would have to be generated by a large number of additional fossil-fuel burning power plants, with a lower total energy efficiency (de Sabata 1995).
