Electric transformation has come forever
Against climate change
The electric car plays a vital role in reducing carbon dioxide emissions. According to the greenhouse gas emissions report, in 1990-2012, road transport accounts for 22% of CO2 emissions. In practice, choosing the electric vehicle that we currently have in the market means that in the whole life of the vehicle, no more than 2 tons of this chemical compound are released. In fact, with today's energy mix of our country, it is a 77% less CO2 emissions than a combustion vehicle and, according to the weight of renewable energies, it will reach 99% in the near future.
One of the main aspects of an electric car and a car thermal (which requires a fuel to operate) is that the battery needs a battery. In 2015, the Scientific Prevention Union (UCS, English sigles) conducted a study to measure the impact of this process on the environment, and concluded that the emissions associated to the manufacturing of this battery could easily be compensated after one year of traffic (or 15,000 km).
The right way to reduce pollution
Nobody flees to polluting emissions caused by traffic - Especially nitrogen oxides (NOx) and suspended particles - today one of the biggest threats to our health. According to the World Health Organization, the infected air caused 4,2 million deaths in 2016. Additionally, it should be noted that diesel-fueled vehicles, which are still in circulation, carry NOx plus 29 times NO2 more than a gasoline car. Europe is aiming to fade fossil fuel vehicles in 2050.
Future car
The future of the automobile is electric. Those opportunities that were imagined thirty years ago have become a reality. Thanks to the digitalisation options, it is possible to monitor and monitor remote functions. Such as activation of air conditioning, charging, opening a vehicle or receiving alerts in the mobile phone. And that's just the beginning; In the near future, the autonomous driver will provide the driver with new services.
Energy saving
A fake myth about what one can see is that the vehicles of this type can affect the consumption of electric bills. But reality tells us the opposite: making 100 km of electricity cost less than a gasoline engine. Visual consumption is much higher than the refrigerator and freezer (around 2,000 kW). If our average annual route is 12,500 km, it would be an increase of € 300, which is about 25 euros per month, and a basic fee will be contracted.
Petrol station at home
The autonomy seen is steadily increasing: in the coming years, most of the market will reach 400 km. But nowadays, much less, we can cover 95% of the needs that we have in everyday urban or urban environments. In addition, it is easier to find available loading areas available in public roads or shopping centers. Endesa, for example, will put 8,500 chargers in the next five years, of which 2,000 will be ready by the end of next year, so it will be difficult to drive in Spain, with a charging point of less than 100km.
And many other things
Even though buying an electric car at the moment is going to be more expensive, there are certainly a lot of benefits. For example, the car's mechanics will last for years, driving safer driving with these cars and other things. In the news, Endesa's opinion can be read about this topic.
