The European Union has set a goal of reducing carbon emissions from cars by 100% by 2035.
European automakers will switch to the production and sale of electric cars powered by alternative energy, and refuse to produce cars with internal combustion engines. Whether it will be possible to carry out the plan, the IA understood RuNews24.ru.
Ditching the internal combustion engine is an environmentally friendly and practical solution. Understanding the structure of an electric car is much easier, and it will be easier to “refuel” with electricity, because you can do it even at home.
However, the issue of environmental friendliness is about the method of obtaining the electricity necessary for cars of the future. It is mined by burning coal, which pollutes the air. Disposal of used nickel-ion batteries is another problem.
For such a short-term and large-scale project, appropriate infrastructure is required. Electricity consumption will grow, it is necessary to build new power plants.
Can Europe completely phase out ICE cars if other countries continue to use them? Probably, the goal will be achieved only partially.
