Delivery Vans are Going Electric: Where and Why

Union of Concerned Scientists

SEPTEMBER 17, 2024

Zero-emission trucks and buses eliminate tailpipe emissions and significantly reduce life-cycle pollution. This tells us which fleets are deploying electric vehicles, which types of these vehicles are being deployed, and where. UCS/S&P Global Mobility, 2024 Some states are seeing more accelerated deployments than others.

Driving on Electricity Is Now Much Cleaner than Using a Gasoline Car

Union of Concerned Scientists

MAY 30, 2024

Replacing gasoline with electricity greatly reduces the carbon emissions from driving. Based on where electric vehicles (EVs) have been sold, driving the average EV in the US produces global warming emissions equal to a hypothetical 94 mile per gallon gasoline car, or less than a third of the emissions of the average new gasoline car.

Air pollution in India is reducing the energy output of some solar panels as much as 52%. That is the conclusion of researchers who have modelled the effects of particulate pollution on solar irradiance in 2001–2018. This aims to reduce aerosol pollution by 20–30% (compared to 2017 levels) by 2024.
