1. Introduction
Electric mobility with low-carbon electricity generation is one of the most promising solutions for reducing local air pollution (especially nitrogen oxides) and the carbon footprint of transport, which accounted for a quarter of the world’s total CO2 emissions in 2017. Passenger cars and light-duty vehicles, which are the main focus of this article, are responsible for more than half of total transport CO2 emissions (International Energy Agency, 2019). Governments around the world are incentivizing the adoption of electric mobility to help meet greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. Therefore, more and more drivers consider switching from an internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV) to an electric vehicle (EV), either a plug-in hybrid EV (PHEV) or fully electric battery EV (BEV). As a result, the share of EVs in fleets is widely expected to grow over the coming decades.
EV batteries are currently mostly recharged at charging points by connecting the vehicle to a p...
