i want is and what it represents, neither china nor the us are able to back down. and the rest of us are stuck watching the super power rivalry play out the if you look at easy. no, it is actually just one thing that is probably worth the did you know that norway so is way more electric cars per capita than the us norway? well buddy isn't kidding. but how did a nation built on fossil fuels to come in as power dice? and what does these things pump legends have to do with the

already these really, the o'neill said to all problems. we argue that the buying the electric vehicle, that's the most important thing for the crime as of yet suspected of too many of these maybe there's most of this electric utopia then meets the eye. well, to understand new ways, a b obsession. we 1st got to rewind to the 1918 believe it or not, no ways loves to ease goes way back to the late eighty's when since pump band hall was in switzerland and for us to come to the to being converted to run on an electric power lead singer motion, hook it brute, a similar call to norway where he began driving. it's in bus lanes, refusing to pay toll parking fees. the arguments he's with good for the environments and to be incentivized that call go to him, pounded many times and put up for auction,

which points the band would buy it back and repeat that performance. they was sped on by environmentalists, frederick conk, and how old and rustic the antics has the desired effect. and the since pump revolution helped to give way to the countries e. v. revolution the, it's a part of the beginning of the story. it gets a but a lot has happened since then. this is christina the, the secretary general of the norwegian e. the association, a non profit founded in 1995 that helped advocate for easy adoption shape policy and liaison between the government and bias. possibly a little more influential than uh huh. in transforming no way into the land of the e. v and into a country eat on musk low today . no ways. e b statistics of phone case studies show that is accounted for 82.4

percent of no ways you passenger costs sales in 2023. and that's not including plug in hybrids. and in 2020 for those because somebody becomes strong. we are above 92 percent speak, also stronger policies implemented in last year's budget. so the budget for this year and the yeah. for the 1st time in history, we might be able to reach a climate goal, which is a very good feeling. she's referring to know ways 0 emissions 2025 go. essentially the countries aim is that in 2025 own you call sold will either be factory electric vehicles or fuel cell electric vehicles. in other words, they're aiming for no new internal combustion engine calls to be sold in 2025 foot more on that lights. nor waste e v landscape is dominated bytes tests, which in 2023 became the most sold called brand in the country for the surge,

yet in a rush. but it is the story and though it has to be in, it started the 4th through the fast pizza. around is the editor in chief of no region comm magazine. my tech report cards have been the breakdowns and the cards now because a lot of the bank press but then they got their act together and they have really stepped up so, so they are, they are a today have a good strong position to people's thinking about the both of the brands what we've seen though is that there's definitely a situation and especially the last year or so where, where tesla has increase their market share when it comes to how many cars that sell. and it was january a year ago where they increase the price is quite a lot. and we've seen that other car manufacturers and importers might have had a big board problem. we're competing with tests in 2023. the model of wine was no ways best selling cars over $23000.00 units sold around 3 and

a half times as many as it's nearly stronghold. the volkswagen id full. which isn't to say that no way doesn't have any issues with the test. it's thrown it support behind its neighbors sweep way, unions with them on things best of wages and working conditions. and it also helps look the impulsive test as into sweden. but this hasn't affected the number of testers in no way. in fact, even as americans struggled with their own product, the no regions have been steadily e, the midst of things to use. the fact, the ease of gain such rapid popularity in the cold, vast notate landscape, has put to rest fee is about the batteries not doing well in sub 0 times about range anxiety. the, these are rapidly closing in on 100 percent market share in no way the only recently. so congress is the, the toyota is lagging in, in production of the,

of the these, the moment they authorize on board. uh, which is a big brand site. the biggest brands on their way. it will be these all over. but how the heck did no way do it? for 2060, we haven't go to reducing amazon's by 90 to 95 percent. this is also stated in the law to the climate law. this is rock notes, is that the state secretary of new ways, climate, 10, environment ministry and it turns out henrich gibson was really, it's been a week and government didn't just draft 1000 would policies. instead they did things. the early eaves in norway were all looking machines that reminded you of kermit the frog the sink city. but the, for example, went exactly the most popular cause in the country. that historically has no driving hey, fella, get out of the country that's produced some pretty phenomenal driver's night. i

just sold bag fits the electric mobility isn't to post is an issue in no way the specific goal of having all new sales of vehicles in 2025 to be 0 emission. is the the goal that has been there all along across different governments. i think part of the success in nor ways, but they've kept the policies in place for a long time. and it's partly due to the different political parties agree to at least a certain extent degree, but also agreement across to sort of civil society sector. even if governments have come and gone, no ways, health costs on its climate goals and the policies that go hand in hand with ex any moves to encourage e b adoption, including tax exemption on buying electric cars and drive us didn't need to pay total parking fees cool for the use of fairies when crossing no waste famous fields

. but some of these measures have since been rolled back to ensure the policies don't just benefit the rich. so tax exemptions still exist the eaves cheaper than $45000.00 to rise. we argue that you'd be buying the electric vehicle. that's the most important thing for the car with them. yes sir. so it's not necessary to have a really expensive electric vehicle. just the function of a one, a reasonable price, and as a be used as encouraged to help meet the 20250 emissions go hybrids and internal combustion engine costs are discouraged by being price times. there will be no spot on ice cars, even new ice cars in 2025 bucks. and it's the politicians that has decided these goals and they have to use and they are using the mixtures, they have to make it happens. and those semesters is the taxes that we have in your

way. in practically practical terms, it means taxing ice cars or combustion engine. cars out of business was really interesting though, is that no waste, the policy existed long before the technology became viable. so over the last decade or so, even well, policies remains relatively unchanged. the number of e b, 's available, change down the rate of ab adoption rose sharply. then if you look at each of these in the rate is actually proof of just one thing. and that is, public data works the display, no ways. the success story, there are a few concerns that are too many easy with the race to meet the 0 emissions go. those concerned the charging that what was the able to support the number of eighty's the country is expect tv and professor is not good. let's do the only reason you can go from north to south and no way within the v is

because of the tesla. we don't have an interest tester today that can handle 5 times as many cars as soon as of today today. there's obviously like all the and so called normal charging for ac, charging for people to use on a weekly basis when they exit or just park in the street. so that's probably one of the challenges going forward. time. there's a worry that incentives to buy a these are acting as a deterrence to people using public transport, something the government is activity trying to remedy. so we have urban growth deal . that is an agreement between the local authorities and the governments in the big cities, making sure that we have photos and measures. it's a much reducing the dressing gross or stating that the gross in traffic should be with public transport, working, or cycling. all the somebody that has sparsely populated country like norway, with great distances between cities,

would ever be able to completely win itself off the com. i think you're pretty to lose a few things that norway can do only with public transport in the whole country. but in the city like also berg and the biggest cities, obviously it's a very major push to, to have public transport and have people, bike and, and fox. but even the world's e v capital has a long way to go to fully electrify its transport. the remaining part now to make it successful for all segments. also the heavy duty vehicles just to make sure that we have charging stations or heavy duty vehicles. so that's the next step in electrifying that. no, we didn't transport subject when we talked about the 2025 go, we're very close to reaching it for passenger cars. but for light duty vehicles we know so well, we don't perfect. what is the way to go there?

um, well the energy going into no waste, these is green, mainly hydro and wins. there are often a few eyebrows raised over the fact that norway is a significant exposure of fossil fuel. we are in touch with the really noise of nestle, fortunately is based on roy. there's no reason to go look at norway says, especially green concrete, the exports, i guess 2 years after this, uh, an important matter to have and then just security in this confidence when it comes to transports. there is also an aspect to remember that electricity is more energy efficient. then of course we'll do the best we have just aren't ready for 12 other you're thinking 3. focusing on changing the energy assistance from profiles to renewals. and as that happened, so the demand for so you know, and gas from europe really increased gray areas, the site, the question remains to know ways e, be success feedback vacated by the rest of the well to come back time. it seems,

well, there are lessons to be done. i will send more countries with you like your when you do strong policies. you can buy a new car today as part of the tiers. it's ridiculous. but replicating the methods used by which country with abundant green energy and the fairly small population is always going to be tricky. this is left about the leasing theme are different from other people. this is about the reason i'm having to talk with you and see to buy super cars, to being electric because of the tax and system. and that's really the main site, the, the noise is exhausting more than 6000000 motorbike because horse, the waste switch at night every day. emerson levels of sky high, things need to change the climate document, climate and putting in

a climate change means we have to ship from combustion engines to electric vehicles . our leaders have prom is to gradually reduce watson mules. and to have us call gay to like 2015 or 2017 by which time their countries will have made a complete split for the 1st initial energy source is low and then a lot of money has been invested already. and change is alondo. wait another ga gov well in this one, but we have done a way to collect a couple of young people in particular like doctors do best in on already making the shift. it makes sense economically to claim within just i pollution flemetcher . there's an amount of money on a daily was very so image seems to be a huge role in the air pollution and climate change thing, which is why the government is promoting electric. right goes, i decided to buy an easy saving money and also so that i could do my big switch to be mobility is also an opportunity for the city stop. it's like wonderfully it's

electric to be louis deliver goods from online retailers. the company says it's a big benefit to ration the new york public people. the public was noticed several benefits for the low maintenance costs. avoiding rising fuel costs, fuel and less pollution. ok. so in the cost, people can save a lot of money by going electric included, the capital of canada got is known as india, silicon valley. despite its high take that protection, it has the same levels of noise and, and felicia as an old industrial city, one company has recently converted. it's in dial lead to electric, weakness, drivers like percent not very impressed to evade goods are easy to drive. there are no gears or clouds yet to be in an extra letter. so there are lots nice that to drive and traffic. we had to go through one and put them the capital of get

it up. you provision as part of the zip drive to get a handle on air pollution by deafening images, regulations, updating the diesel engine as of the rate goes to fit the new norm would have been very expensive for district shop with usa. so instead to build a brand new lead, run on electricity, on like a warranty decision. uh, the government and that thing they uh, you know, know that, that will be initiated. and, and so i pulled it up for us with the 1st time, and the indices. and uh, and so the only refund from the, from the company to company with the government getting those government grants. bio is a subsidy of up 220002 be around $350.00 units on ebay. cheesy plus as all tax exemption for 5 years. but critics see the take up is still far too low

. and the, the for the last and i'm a claimant didn't mean to get on. if we want to mitigate climate change is that we have to stop using fossil fuels, either favor they've given me, i need to know. i'm going to go to the scientists and research. ultimately we have just 70 is go, reduce emissions by 50 percent. we get the ability to download it and have a 1000000, and that's not a lot of time. and we have to double the the we are currently moving ad on them. and that means leaving mess up fees to email you at the moment, kim, on that, what am as you can switch them out, talk about georgi infrastructure is still insufficient. underscore the electricity use 2 jobs for electric vehicles must come from renewables. that's the only way they can be truly sustain it. but nonetheless, these initiatives in southern india are making a small but important contribution towards aquino future.

these images made headlines worldwide. in july, this burning cargo ship was carrying nearly 500 electric and more than 3000 other vehicles off the dutch coast. many feared it would create environmental have ok if it's sense, especially because of the electric vehicles on board was the fear justified? easy battery fires are difficult to control misleading. since the cars have been on the market, they have been making headlines about the dangers of batteries exploding and extinguish of all fires. according to exports like dick's, i was the number of fires, and e cars is much more company or to conventional combustion engine cars. but if they catch fire, they are hotter and it takes more water to put the fire out. and many also fear the fires. why do we have night hours after being extinguished? there's only a few of the cells really bent into fire,

then the other ones might have a pre damage but has not been burned. and so the energy is still in, and maybe if you start moving the car or it so some water spills on some critical electrical parts or whatever. you may have reaction somewhat later according to a us insurance service provider. there have been only $25.00 fires 410-0000 electric vehicles sales for a year. they less than and combustion cars. another claim surrounding the fires of the car. batteries is that the high wilted victim young batteries poses the risk of electric shock to emergency responders from exposure to the high will to, to components of a damaged lithium ion battery. if you go, for example, to us fire administration, there are special instructions, how to handle fire and connected cars, and one of the warnings that's exactly that. so high temperatures possibility. so

for electric shock because the battery keeps running. and also the other thing because of the high temperature, if you're trying to apply water on the electric car, in some cases, it might end up a flyer in flowery now, but the misinformation surrounding inc. cars is not only about the dangers they may cause many also claim. they're not worth the investment as you can only drive short votes with them. they want to mandatory electric cars. the cars go for like 2 of 2 hours. what are you going to do? everyone is going to be sitting on the highway. we're all going to be looking for a little plug in this claim by former us president donald trump left many surprised because it was an ever up to you turn from his previous to port of new cars. but is it true? electric cars can't drive for more than 2 hours, misleading? typically, a bad face efficiency is measured in terms of distance covered. not the time elapsed according to a cheap cheap by the electric vehicle database electric vehicles can typically

travel an average of approximately 350 kilometers on a single charge, depending on their make and capacity. if we adopt this benchmark, a simple google search reveals that covering such a distance would require nearly 4 and a half hours in the us on terminal to bonds with stretches without speed limits a bound one could even travel 350 kilometers in slightly over 3 and a half hours. however, according to a study by the american automobile association, driving conditions including hot and cold weather, also affect the range of an easy. for instance, researchers found that's the average range for decrease by 40 percent, due to full temperatures and heat. actually, most of the driving of electric cars has in c t where the electric cars are performing much better. so the that to hours, these different exaggeration. and you can even add a little bit more color to that,

that the best cars, car and the reach are on the market. given you city, 100 miles, 360 miles full 100 miles on the driving range. the people are not only worried about the efficacy of new cars, but also about their sustainability. easy batteries have a short life span faults. it is difficult to determine the exact life span of batteries and electric vehicles due to their limited presence overtime. nearly one 3rd of all electric vehicles hit the rows just last year. however, a recent study suggests that the batteries put out last the vehicles themselves. it indicates that batteries replacements are relatively rare, with just over $200.00 batteries. out of 15000 easy owners needing replacement, according to most of the manufacturers backs these come with a variety of 8 years or 160000 kilometers japanese car maker nissan recently claimed the almost all easy batteries the manufacturer are still in use.

and this one started as a be production more than 12 years ago. similarly, test left states that is vehicles in the us typically drive an average of 320000 kilometers and nearly 250000 kilometers in europe before being retired. compared to of combustion engine carts, the life span of e car battery is much longer. according to the american auto mobile association, factories of a combustion engine, the car have an average of only 3 to 5 years. but some exceptional cases of older cars, lasting 10 years. but the reason i'm getting better and better, and some of them are claiming much longer ranges. but indeed battery is very expensive piece of the equipment. and if you are planning to have your car much longer, i don't know 1520 years. well then indeed you would need to replace the battery.

another common narrative surrounding claims about in cars is that it is an ethical to buy them as child labor is behind the production of their batteries. children are involved in the production of electricity, hickle's show a series of social media posts, as well as human rights activists. claim that children are involved in the production of electric vehicles. these claims mentioned the cobalt mining operations in the democratic republic of congo. cobalt is one of the essential elements needed in producing lithium batteries. these batteries are used with electric vehicles, but not just their cobalt as also needed for producing batteries for smartphones and computers. media research shows children have been involved in coal. both mining in the d. r stays mines. this fact has been covered by mainstream media on numerous occasions and child's rights activists has been raising awareness for it as well. about 20 percent of the cold is extracted through our

seasonal means, meaning, you know, just people with basic tools digging to get some, some rocks and some examples. so we know that even these 20 percent of coal that subtracted in archie's me minds, there is a huge problem of children working in these mines. car companies are researching alternatives for coal box to produce batteries. and some have announced the only use ethically, mind coal, both. for example, german car manufacturer, bmw, has said it's owned by the component directly from australia and morocco. however, a report by the i p. c. c. notes concerns about the widespread adoption of factory technologies, including the growing concerns about resource availability, labor rights, non climate, environmental impact and costs of critical minerals needed for lithium, e and batteries. despite their search and popularity,

electric cars constituted less than 15 percent of the global market share. never the less experts remain convinced that these vehicles were present, the future of transportation and more automotive tales. next time on rev the
