Gas Cars Produce More Supply Chain Emissions than EVs, According to Yale University Study Electric vehicles offer a cleaner, lower-emission
Published in December in, the study used lifecycle assessment and energy modeling tools to analyze and collect data about indirect emissions from conventional vehicles in comparison with EVs. Then, researchers calculated what a carbon price on those figures would cost and what effect it could have on the auto market.
In comparison with gas cars, however, the indirect emissions of EVs are still so low that a carbon tax on both indirect and direct tailpipe emissions would actually result in much lower emissions and increased EV sales, explains Yale Professor of Economics Ken Gillingham. No matter if it’s measured from the tailpipe of a car or the local power plant’s smokestack resulting from mass charging, electric cars have emissions advantages across the entire supply chain — and they’re only set to get cleaner.
