A Review on the Potential of Electric Vehicles in Reducing World CO2 Footprints (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alotaibi, S., Omer, S., & Su, Y. (2020, December). A Review on the Potential of Electric Vehicles in Reducing World CO2 Footprints. Presented at XIV. International Conference on Electric Vehicle Engineering and Applications, Paris, France

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.
