Abstract

The electrification of road transport is accelerating globally, propelled by a mix of environmental concerns, legislative mandates, and business opportunities. Relying to a larger extent on electricity in the transportation sector provides new opportunities to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, fossil fuel consumption, and local air pollution by improving energy efficiency and employing renewable energy. As part of this development, leading vehicle manufacturers are currently making a substantial effort to provide hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid EVs (PHEVs), and pure EVs to the market.
