· Electric vehicles have the potential to decrease, or at least moderate the growth of, utility rates. For a technology that will increase total demand for electricity, this may seem counter -intuitive. The reason that electric vehicles may actually decrease utility rates lies in daily oscillations in power consumption.

· Sport utility vehicles typically have lower fuel economy due to their high curb weights and payload capacities as well as their potential to cause serious environmental impacts. In light of this fact, a life cycle assessment is carried out in this study to assess their cradle-to-grave environmental impacts for life cycle phases ranging from manufacturing to end-of-life recycling.
Copper has a role to play in hybrid and fuel cell vehicles and researchers are actively looking at new propulsion systems. Firstly, hybrids which combine conventional combustion engines with electric motors can provide an interim solution. Conventional fuels are used for long journeys and the electric motor for the urban environment.

· The effect of recycling on platinum price depends on the extent of recycling. It seems probable that a 90% recycling rate or better will keep platinum prices significantly lower than will a 50% recycling rate. We cannot predict when and to what extent a successful recycling
To initiate motor rotation, electric energy in the form of current is applied to the motor windings. The resistance of the copper in these windings, which is inversely proportional to the diameter of the wire and proportional to the length, produces an ohmic loss (E ohm).As rotation occurs, the current is varied, changing the magnetic field strength.
Since an electric motor is used in both vehicle types, they contain considerably more copper than conventional cars. The UK Government has set targets for the take-up of low emission vehicles for at least 50% — and as many as 70% — of new car sales to be ultra low emission by 2030, alongside up to 40% of new vans.
· The equivalent reduction rate through recycling for an ICEV is 30%. The difference of life cycle GHG emissions between an EV and an ICEV in China is presented in Figure 7. Due to the higher GHG emissions from the production phase, the GHG emissions from both production and use phases of an EV are roughly 28.43-39.49 t-CO 2 eq, slightly lower

Data for EPAct motors in the table assume such motors are available from inventory.
· Electric Mini Hardtop Officially Revealed in July. The two most significant energy costs for a business are the rate paid per unit used and demand charges. Demand charges are measured in kW and represent the amount of energy consumed at a single point in time. Energy consumption is measured in kWh and is the total amount of energy used over
