Development of the electric vehicle

The interest aroused by the large-scale implementation of electric vehicles in a reasonable period of time is based on a significant technological advance in the field of batteries.

We can imagine, in a relatively short period of time, a scenario where widespread use of these vehicles will contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions attributable to road transport.

This reduction in transport emissions is essential to achieve the European Union's 20-20-20 Targets by 2020.

Moreover, the Electric Vehicle contributes to reduce noise pollution in the main Spanish cities, as it is practically noiseless.

Therefore, the Electric Vehicle is a technologically feasible alternative that can contribute to achieve the proposed goals:

Increase sustainability, by reducing emissions, pollution and noise.
Reinforce the guarantee of electricity supply, by replacing oil dependence.
Contribute to improve competitiveness, by promoting technological innovation and optimising the electric generation mix.
