Batteries aren't just for cars! In this second episode focused on electric boats, Theo talks about the significant challenges that they face, some myths surrounding them, and the potential benefits to adoption of electric power for boats, while contrasting all of these factors with similar consideration for electric cars.
This episode is the sequel to an episode from December, which focused on the history of electric boats. It's definitely not required before listening to this episode, but if you haven't listened, we encourage you to check out that episode as well.

How much pollution does the production of the electric vehicle battery cause and what are the prospects for improvements in that area? If you really want to find out reliable numbers for the environmental impact of electric cars, you have to dig in quite deep and really devote a lot of time to learn how to filter the trustworthy sources from the dubious ones.

The battery of an electric vehicle makes up a substantial part of both the cost and the weight of an electric vehicle, and it yet is one of the biggest challenges preventing manufacturers from finally making electric vehicles outperform the currently predominant internal combustion engine vehicles such as diesel and gasoline cars.

Episode Description
We explain how market analysts have calculated the total cost of ownership so far, and talk about two other ways to think about the cost and benefit of owning electric vehicles -- the usage experience (do both technologies offer the same benefit and therefore require equal cost, or is one of them superior and it would thereby be justified to have higher cost?), and the potential monetary effects when you include the social cost of carbon.
Theo and Teresa have been brainstorming ..read more

Episode Description
In the previous episode, Teresa and Theo talked about the lifetime carbon emissions of electric cars. But electric car emissions are highly dependent on the carbon emissions of the electricity that powers them. So in this episode, Theo takes a quick dive into the electrical grid, how it works, and how it can become greener.

Episode Description
EVs have no tailpipe emissions - but critiques say that the emissions of the electricity production and the emissions of the battery production make the EV worse off. In this episode, Theo and Teresa debunk the most polarized studies and explain how certain assumptions impact the results.
Furthermore, they conduct their own calculations and play around with different scenarios.
