A new study from TUM shows that the CO2 savings from electric cars in the EU are significantly lower than Brussels assumed, which necessitates a fundamental reform of emissions accounting. (translated)
Of course, e-cars also burden the climate during production. Just much less than combustion engines. Neither is new. Logical conclusion: 1️⃣ As few cars as possible, priority for bikes and public transport. 2️⃣ If a car is necessary, then electric. And not: "More combustion engines!🤪" (translated)
This is now part of general knowledge... ‼️ TU Munich dissects Europe's e-car policy (translated)
Germany's dishonest "exhaust logic": Bild chief author Peter Tiede dismantles Germany's insane decision to label electric cars as climate-neutral. In a Welt interview, he names former Chancellor Angela Merkel, under whose leadership fundamental assessment errors were made as early as 2011. (translated)
Wieviel Geld fehlt dem Staat im Jahr wenn es nur noch reine E-Fahrzeuge geben würde? Was Studien für den Vollumstieg nennen Thomas Puls (IW Köln): 50 Milliarden Euro pro Jahr, wenn die Umstellung auf E-Autos gelingt – inklusive Energiesteuer, CO₂-Preis und weiterer Effekte. 50 Milliarden! Und glaubt irgendjemand dass der Staat auf dieses Geld verzichtet? #EAutos #Energiepolitik #Finanzen
The Technical University of Munich demonstrates to the EU a dangerous climate strategy: Electric cars are not CO2-free and therefore not climate-neutral, contrary to the assumption in the EU climate regulation. (translated)
Oh, the electric car has no exhaust and is therefore "clean"? The latest study from TU Munich confirms just a dozen earlier analyses about electric dirt. Why the topic is suddenly coming to the surface, although it has long been known. (translated)
Study exposes EU lie: Electric cars are not climate neutral! (translated)
Leading German scientists are calling for a fundamental reassessment of EU automotive policy, as the focus on electric cars as a climate-neutral solution represents a dangerous illusion that jeopardizes the labor market and the competitiveness of the German automotive industry. (translated)
Are electric cars really not climate-neutral as claimed? A study from the Technical University of Munich dismantles the subsidy fairy tale of alleged zero emissions. (translated)
A new study from the Technical University of Munich sheds light on the inadequate climate balance of electric cars and calls for a rethink from the EU regarding the strategy for phasing out combustion engines, while CSU leader Markus Söder demands a real rethink and technology openness in the automotive industry. (translated)
Top scientists from the Technical University of Munich question the EU policy for promoting electric cars as climate saviors and argue that it is based on a flawed exhaust logic, which could have significant industrial policy implications. (translated)
Hundreds of fatalities and numerous missing persons after a devastating flood disaster in the Himalayas, while German car manufacturers are under pressure due to the Chinese electric vehicle offensive and rising US national debt. (translated)
Volkswagen is planning a corporate restructuring, inspired by its affordable electric cars and modern production methods in China, to remain competitive in the increasingly tough price battle with Chinese manufacturers, while the question arises as to whether this model can also be successfully implemented in Germany. (translated)
The EU is planning an economic policy alliance with the UK, Japan, and South Korea to limit China's increasing car exports, keep markets open to each other, and implement protective measures against rising imports. (translated)
In Vienna, used electric car batteries are being utilized in a new pilot project by Wien Energie as cost-effective stationary energy storage for a solar power plant to maximize the efficiency of solar energy use and keep valuable resources in use for a longer time. (translated)
Die CSU will die E-Auto-Förderung stärker an Wertschöpfung in Europa 🇪🇺 koppeln. Mein Vorschlag an die CSU-Politiker: Fahrt doch einfach mal nach Grünheide. Dort steht eines der modernsten Autowerke Europas. Dort wird das Tesla Model Y gebaut, mit Tausenden Arbeitsplätzen in Brandenburg. Vielleicht versteht man dann besser, was „Wertschöpfung in Europa“ eigentlich bedeutet. Denn wenn ein Tesla aus Grünheide am Ende weniger förderwürdig sein soll als ein „deutsches“ Auto, das außerhalb Europas gebaut wird, läuft bei der Argumentation etwas gewaltig schief. #EAuto #Wertschöpfung #Europa
The article highlights the challenges of charging infrastructure for electric cars in Germany, noting that while there could be enough public charging points nationwide, many inner-city neighborhoods are facing an acute shortage of charging points, which could jeopardize progress towards the desired electric mobility by 2045. (translated)
Professor Ferdinand Dudenhöffer, known as the Auto-Pope, demands the cessation of state subsidies for electric cars, as he considers this support unnecessary with a 41% market share and criticizes that it particularly favors Chinese automakers, which sell cars at low prices. (translated)
