Emissions from Public Transportation
- Emissions from transportation have been shown to have significant negative health impacts and diesel engines have come into focus in recent years as they have much higher emissions
- Urban air quality is becoming a major issue in cities around the world
- Urban transportation include private vehicle, bus, taxi, rail and ferry
Global Electric Vehicle Trend
- As the world’s urban population continues to grow, identifying sustainable, cost effective transportation options is becoming more critical – electrifying transportation is one of the options
- Globally at the moment, only one in 250 cars on the road is electric. Battery electric cars comprise 2.1% of new global auto sales (about 2 million passenger vehicles)
- Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) 2019 Electric Vehicle Outlook Report sees the total EV vehicles soaring to 548 million by 2040, or about 32% of the world’s passenger vehicles
- To meet decarbonisation targets by 2050, it's forecasted that 70% of newly manufactured cars must be electric
