Interesting data about EV efficiency. You will hear #fossilfuel promoters argue that #EVs powered by coal-sourced #electricity are no more efficient or less polluting than gas powered cars. But that's clearly not the case. (It takes energy to make #gasoline, which is also less efficient for locomotion.)

From Yale Climate Connections:
Electric vehicles use half the energy of gas-powered vehicles https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/01/electric-vehicles-use-half-the-energy-of-gas-powered-vehicles/

Electric vehicles use half the energy of gas-powered vehicles

They’re just much more efficient.

@IngaLovinde not just #Diesel, most #Potatoes that ain't food grade in #Germany get turned into #Ethanol and added as #Bioethanol to #Gasoline in general.

Those moves capped a year in which the #Trump admin systematically eliminated regulations designed to reduce #GreenhouseGases & gutted federal subsidies that could have brought more #wind & #solar power onto the #grid. With #Republican allies in #Congress, the admin erased incentives to help consumers switch to #nonpolluting #ElectricVehicles from #gasoline-burning cars. At the same time, federal agencies imposed new policies making it easier & cheaper to produce & burn #oil, #gas & #coal.
