The Danish parliament has recently approved a new corporate carbon tax which is reported to become the highest in Europe. Denmark has already set an ambitious target of cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 70% from 1990 levels by 2030. The Danish government says it will target companies both in and outside the EU’s carbon quota system.
Each county in the country is colored red if the petrol vehicle has lower emissions and blue if the electric vehicle has lower emissions. Difference in lifecycle emissions in grammes CO2-equivalent per mile driven for selected electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles (2013 Nissan Leaf BEV, 2013 Chevrolet Volt PHEV, and 2013 Prius PHEV) relative to
Fig. 1: Year when projected emissions reach net zero, per country (number of models representing that country between brackets), for 2 °C and 1.5 °C scenarios, for CO 2 emissions, CO 2 emissions
Table 1 shows the basic descriptive measures, and it is clear that CO 2 (mean = 655.56 thousands of tons) dominated among the examined GHG emissions in EU countries, while the lowest mean value was found for SF 6 (mean = 0.82 thousands of tons). The values of skewness and kurtosis indicated some deviations from the normal distribution, but in
In the fourth quarter of 2022, EU economy greenhouse gas emissions totalled 938 million tonnes of CO2-equivalents (CO2-eq), a 4% decrease compared with the same quarter of 2021 (978 million tonnes of CO2-eq). This decrease is accompanied by some economic rebound, as shown by the 1.5% increase in the EU’s gross domestic product (GDP) in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with the same
If the EV sales growth experienced in recent years is sustained, CO2 emissions from cars can be put on a path in line with the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario. However, despite huge growth in China, some European countries and some U.S. states, electric vehicles are not yet a global phenomenon. pRZjAa. 305 359 467 249 275 238 275 110 439
