The Development of Electromobility in Poland and EU States as a Tool for Management of CO2 Emissions

Abstract

The article analyzes the dynamics of the development of the electromobility sector in Poland in the context of the European Union and due to the economic situation and development of the electromobility sector in the contexts of Switzerland and Norway. On the basis of obtained data, a forecast was made which foresees the most likely outlook of the electric car market in the coming years. The forecast was made using the creeping trend method, and extended up to 2030. As part of the analysis of the effect of the impact of electromobility, an original method was proposed for calculating the primary energy factor (PEF) primary energy ratio in the European Union and in its individual countries, which illustrates the conversion efficiency of primary energy into electricity and the overall efficiency of the power system. The original method was also verified, referring to the methods proposed by the Fraunhofer-Institut. On the basis of all previous actions and analyses, an assessment was made of the impact of the development of the electromobility sector on air quality in the countries studied. Carbon dioxide tank-to-wheels emission reductions which result from the conversion of the car fleet from conventional vehicles to electric motors were then calculated. In addition to reducing carbon dioxide emissions, other pollutant emissions were also calculated, such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM). The increase in the demand for electricity resulting from the needs of electric vehicles was also estimated. On this basis, and also on the basis of previously calculated primary energy coefficients, the emission reduction values have been adjusted for additional emissions resulting from the generation of electricity in power plants.

The Efficiency of the Sustainable Development Policy for Energy Consumption under Environmental Law in Thailand: Adapting the SEM-VARIMAX Model

“…In the U.S., Barari and Kundu [87] revisited the role of the U.S. Federal Reserve in triggering the recent housing crisis by using a VAR model and found that federal funds rate did not lead to house price increases. Looking at the European Union, Tucki et al [88] proposed a new method to investigate the development of the electromobility sector in Poland and the EU states. Their study concluded that Poland and the EU states require new approaches in terms of energy management and vehicle operation management.…”

Classifying the Level of Energy-Environmental Efficiency Rating of Brazilian Ethanol

“…It also supported the goal of reducing 37% of GHG emissions by 2025, compared to 2005 levels [2,12,15,16]. Differently, some European Union countries also include electromobility (electric cars) in their GHG emission reduction forecasts [17].…”

Evaluation of the Brake’s Performance Dependence Upon Technical Condition of Car Tires as a Factor of Road Safety Management

“…The dynamic development of global economy and the globalization of automotive sectors require a multi-dimensional view [1,2]. Increased public awareness of the issues of reducing CO 2 emissions has accelerated work on the development of electromobility [3,4] and biofuels [5,6]. One of the most important parts of car engineering is the tire [7,8].…”
