Conclusions

  • In France, EV shows lower

environmental impacts than ICEV except for acidification

  • Not true for other European countries
  • Local pollutants and noise: dedicated

zones to be defined for a significant impact

  • Critical resources: consumption of

Cobalt only might be significantly affected

Suggested investigation

  • Charging infrastructure
  • Real use emission factors for ICEV and

electricity consumption for EV

  • Indicators
  • Include toxicity and eco-toxicity
  • Hybrid vehicles
  • Other batteries
  • More intensive use of EVs for mobility

services

  • Quick charging?
