EVs to displace over 5 million bpd of oil demand a day by 2030: IEA report

Live Mint  

Electric vehicles are set to displace over 5 million barrels of oil demand per day based on current policy settings, according to the International Energy Agency. The IEA, in its recent report titled ‘Global EV Outlook 2023’, claims that at the global level, oil displacement by EVs reaches 1.8 million barrels per day in 2025 and 5 mbpd by 2030 under stated policies. Road transport account for over 40 per cent of global oil demand, but electric cars are driving a major transformation of the auto industry, said the Paris-based agency gathering of the 31 mostly industrialised countries and much of the European Union. Although electric SUVs represented roughly 35 per cent of all electric passenger light-duty vehicles in 2022, their share of oil displacement was even higher, as SUVs tend to be driven more than smaller cars.
