The popular science fiction has set high the expectations of what the future of transportation will look like, (Tesla) has painted a picture of how the auto industry will evolve in its latest Long-term Electric Vehicle . EVs are predicted to represent 31% of all cars on the road in 2040.

Elon Musk’s electric car firm have risen more than 700% during 2020 to become the world’s most valuable car company.But how green is a Tesla, really? Your electric car doesn’t need gas, but it still might get its energy from burning carbon/Solar -which is also not a green energy. The math gets trickier when you deep dive into manufacturing process for example Lithium in batteries.

It’s not just Tesla, of course. All electric vehicles rely on parts with similar environmental issues.But the future is to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy.

The Next clean energy is AIR TO FUELS

Direct Air Capture is a technology that captures carbon dioxide directly from the air with an engineered, mechanical system.By the Fischer–Tropsch process, collected carbon is mixed with hydrogen to produce liquid hydrocarbons.

The transportation sector of 2050 will run on an energy mix unlike that of today. Operators are demanding increasing quantities of low-carbon energy sources and renewable fuels, and the sector is searching for next generation technologies to help reduce emissions and achieve climate targets.

Thanks for reading :)
