Abstract: | The article evaluates the environmental benefits of electric vehicles using well-to-wheel analysis in the Czech Republic. The power consumption per kilometer is determined from the combined cycle of the New European Driving Cycle. Using information from the integrated registry of polluters and mandatory disclosures of the CEZ company the specific harmful emissions production per 1 kW h of electricity is determined. The combination of electricity consumed and the production of harmful emissions per 1 kW h of electricity determine the indirect harmful emissions of an electric vehicle per kilometer. Computer simulation of the indirect production of harmful emissions is performed on the Mitsubishi MiEV engine, typical for an electric vehicle. |
