Studie
The end of the ICE age? : Life cycle assessment of diesel, fuel cell, and battery electric heavy-duty freight vehicles
This study uses life cycle assessment (LCA) to compare the environmental performance of diesel, fuel cell, and battery electric powertrains for regional trucks and long-haul tractors. The results indicate electric vehicles have lower impacts in climate change but show trade-offs in other categories, like freshwater and terrestrial toxicity. Given rapid technological advancements, regular updates to assessments are necessary to help stakeholders identify effective strategies for enhancing environmental performance as these technologies evolve.
