Opportunities and risks of electromobility in Switzerland

Print
Many expect that electromobility will make the traffic more eco-friendly: after all electrically powered vehicles expel no pollutants, and they move nearly silently. However, battery construction requires environmentally harmful materials, and many disposal issues are still unresolved. The TA-SWISS study examines how electromobility could fit into the Swiss traffic system and which consequences this could have for environment, society and economy.
