Chemical batteries are the promise of a cleaner future but there they cannot stand alone . Battery production is firmly tied to the chemical industry and oil. All of the components form a complex web of mining, shipping,processing more shipping, manufacturing still more shipping. All of these steps require carbon emissions. This is real world economics not the numbers game beloved by academics.

And then, yes there is a lot more, the batteries need to be charged and the production of electricity has its own spider web of interlocking factors all of which....dramatic pause emit carbon.

Finally there has to be sufficient distribution of electricity to make the whole process worth it. Otherwise whole swaths of North America will be abandoned not to mention South America , Africa and Asia.

Lots of work to do to fix these problems.

Until then you pay at the pump
