Type: article
Abstract: The transition to electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing has emerged as a pivotal strategy in reducing carbon emissions and fostering sustainable transportation. This study examines the environmental and social benefits of EV manufacturing, emphasizing the role of renewable energy in production, battery lifecycle impacts, and policy interventions. A comparative life cycle assessment (LCA) demonstrates that although EV production, particularly battery manufacturing, generates higher initial emissions than internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, the overall lifetime emissions of EVs are significantly lower. The research highlights the necessity of integrating renewable energy sources in both manufacturing and charging infrastructure to maximize sustainability. Additionally, the study explores challenges such as high production costs, raw material extraction concerns, and infrastructure limitations in developing countries. Policy recommendations include expanding battery recycling, enhancing government incentives, and investing in renewable energy-powered charging networks. This paper provides a comprehensive evaluation of EV manufacturing’s role in mitigating climate change while addressing challenges for global adoption.
