Dear MEL Topic Readers,
New cars sold in EU must be zero-emission from 2035
In 27 European Union countries, all new cars sold from 2035 will not emit exhaust gas or other pollutants on the road. This landmark agreement has just recently been reached, with one vote against it and three abstentions, in a bit to reduce carbon dioxide emissions to zero. New cars in the EU, whose present population is about 450 million, will only be electric, fuel cell vehicles powered by hydrogen, bio-fuel, or e-fuels vehicles. The share of electric vehicles, the most popular zero-emission vehicle today, has risen to 12 percent of the total new car market in 2022, up from 1.9% in 2019. As electric vehicles become more economically affordable and charging stations become more easily accessible, they are expected to increase their share quite rapidly. What about e-fuels? E-fuels or electro fuels are synthetic fuels that are made from carbon dioxide captured from the atmosphere and hydrogen from clean energies. They are thought of as an option for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in transportation but haven’t been commercially mass-produced yet. Car manufacturers, new ventures, and their suppliers are now making in their investments in clean energy vehicles around the world. Do you want to drive a car that is run on gasoline in 2030? Will there be enough gas stations then?
Enjoy reading the article and thinking about what type of vehicles driving on the road in the near future.
