Asia Pacific‘s leading platform for sustainable development
Opinion / #electric vehicles
China’s experience shows that renewable generation, grid investment and flexible business demand must develop together for electrification to deliver economic value.
Electric vehicles can reduce pollution and emissions. But underlying issues of preserving car dependence, displacing environmental harm and workers bearing the costs of a clean future need to be addressed.
Partnerships with China, not protectionism, will determine affordable, interoperable and equitable global decarbonisation and energy security.
