⚡🔌 Battery electric trucks are reaching lifetime cost parity with diesel — and starting to overtake them. Globally aligned emissions standards or mandates could accelerate this tipping point in lagging markets. New analysis from our @eeist-project.bsky.social team: eeist.co.uk/eeist-report... 🧵

We were surprised by our results - the tipping point is much closer than we expected. In some regions and vehicle categories, such as heavy- and medium-duty trucks in China, and vans in India and China, electric vehicles are already cheaper over their lifetimes than their diesel counterparts. In other regions, cost parity is expected before 2033. Dr Amir Akther, Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter

Our report on cascading tipping points in the green transition is out now! We investigated how a transition in one sector, helps (or hinders) the transition in other sectors. global-tipping-points.org/wp-content/u...
