Hybrid vehicles practical medium-term solution for India's decarbonisation drive: Report
Under the current circumstances, the total carbon emissions (well to wheel) from hybrid cars is lesser than that of electric vehicles (EVs) and it may take 7-10 years for EV and hybrid emissions to converge. "Hybrids are critical not just from a cost of ownership perspective, but also for India's de-carbonisation drive," the report said.
Total emissions include both vehicle emissions -- tank to wheel (TTW) and crude mining/refining emissions, power generation emissions -- well to tank (WTT), the report said. Image Courtesy: Reuters.
