A Review on the Potential of Electric Vehicles in Reducing World CO2 Footprints (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alotaibi, S., Omer, S., & Su, Y. (2022). A Review on the Potential of Electric Vehicles in Reducing World CO2 Footprints. In Open Science Index, Transport and Vehicle Engineering (570-578)

The conventional Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) based vehicles are a threat to the environment as they account for a large proportion of the overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the world. Hence, it is required to replace these vehicles with m... Read More about A Review on the Potential of Electric Vehicles in Reducing World CO2 Footprints.
