OOI does that include the CO2 produced when the electricity used to
re-charge the batteries is generated ?
Finding 'gross impact' seems to be tricky. Very rarely see non-fuel
particulates discussed too.
As an aside to that, what happened to hydrogen / fuel-cell cars?
Now we have all this spare electricity (to charge EV's g) why
couldn't we use it to electrolyse seawater instead?
Cost (and ruinously inefficient compared to just charging a battery).
Doesnt mean to say that it wont have a place, but economics will
determine that itll be used only where battery charging isnt a practical
option.
