Electrical vehicles are not environment friendly totally

Electrical vehicles do not have emissions at the place of their use. However, the electricity that is required for charging has to be produced somewhere and if this comes from fossils, then the place of power plants are polluted. Further, the transmission losses and efficiency during charging are to be taken into account.

The other side is that the environment impact for transport of hydrocarbons to places of use also need to be considered.

Most of the times, we see that electrical vehicles are pollution free and hype is being created. The waste created from batteries also has to be seen, they great improvements are made during last decade.

But, we have to understand that they are good only at the place of use for above reasons.
