However, the electric vehicle must not be recharged with carbon-based electricity, and is not a miracle recipe for reducing traffic jams. Unsuspected synergies, such as V2G, must be sought out, as they will bring transport out of its isolation from the rest of the energy system.

Energy transformations are made possible by technological innovations, but they are also triggered by societal/social factors. It is just as important to reduce the need for mobility, to encourage non-motorized or low-motorized travel, and to implement policies that encompass urban and regional planning....
