And the percentage of clean energy is growing every year as coal and gas plants are being replaced by renewable energy sources. Lithium is a metal that is mined in the deserts of Australia, China, Argentina, and Chile. In India 39.1% of electricity comes from sources that emit no CO2. In Europe it is even better at 56%.

Li-ion batteries currently are the indispensable enabling technology for electric vehicles and the electric grid, the latter due to the need to store energy from renewable sources. Extracting the raw materials, mainly lithium and cobalt, requires large quantities of energy and water. This would have a considerable carbon footprint.

Electric vehicles typically have a smaller operating carbon footprint than gasoline cars, even when accounting for the electricity used for charging. With the full cradle-to-grave life cycle in mind, the question becomes: does an EV have a smaller carbon footprint over its lifetime than an ICEV? Manufacturing an Electric Vehicle.
