A new report examines how electric vehicles could play a pivotal role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but only if powered by clean energy sources. The analysis highlights the importance of pairing EV adoption with renewable energy infrastructure to ensure environmental benefits. Experts warn that relying on fossil fuel-based electricity grids could undermine the climate advantages of switching to electric transport. The findings underscore the need for coordinated policies to accelerate both clean energy expansion and sustainable transportation solutions.
