Ecological Systems and Devices Annotation << Back Environmental Comparison of Electric and Gasoline Vehicles Masleeva O.V., Kryukov E.V., Petukhov Y.I. The article presents a comparison of the environmental impact of electric vehicles and cars with an internal combustion engine. When assessing the environmental impact, the following factors were taken into account: consumption of natural resources, waste generation, water consumption, emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere, greenhouse gas emissions, and electricity consumption. A methodology has been developed that allows quantitative assessment of the environmental impact of vehicles at various stages of their life cycle. As a result of the analysis of the environmental impact of vehicles, it was revealed that during the life cycle electric vehicles cause signifi cantly more damage to the environment compared to gasoline-powered cars.
