The issue of carbon emissions by electric vehicle(EV) was studied using life cycle theory, and the work provided decision basis for creating China’s CO2 emission standards for auto. The results show that the carbon equivalent emission of coal-fired generation side per unit electricity consumed by EV is lower than the level of normal passenger car in China, but still higher than the forced limit on auto emission within the EU.
