dc.description.abstract | Electrification of transport is an essential component of urban climate change mitigation. Transport is responsible for around a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions. Emissions from the transport sector could double by 2050 in a business-as-usual scenario.2 An estimated 21% of the emissions reductions necessary to bring urban emissions down to nearly net-zero are in the transport sector. Reducing emissions from urban transport primarily involves reducing dependence on private vehicles, through modal shifts to low-emissions alternatives, changes in urban form to reduce transport demand, and other actions. However, given that private vehicles will never completely disappear, a shift towards electric vehicles can help private vehicles reduce their carbon emissions (contingent on the decarbonization of electricity). According to the International Energy Agency, if the growth in electric vehicles experienced in recent years is sustained, CO2 emissions from cars can be put on a path in line with the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario. | en |
