澳大利亚的EV效率提高,可能会因使用量增加而导致碳足迹增加。 Increased EV efficiency in Australia may lead to higher carbon footprint due to increased usage.
这种“约束效应”可能会损害澳大利亚电动车辆的环境效益,因为效率的提高可导致更多的使用。 The "rebound effect" may undermine the environmental benefits of electric vehicles (EVs) in Australia, as increased efficiency can lead to greater usage. 研究表明,当EV效率更高或价格更低时,人们可能会驱动力更大,提高整体碳足迹,特别是如果收费依赖于化石燃料的话。 Research indicates that when EVs are more efficient or affordable, people may drive more, raising their overall carbon footprint, especially if charging relies on fossil fuels. 虽然促进EV的激励措施可以减少排放量,但也可能导致驾驶和交通增加。 While incentives to promote EVs can reduce emissions, they may also result in increased driving and traffic. 提高消费者的认识对于减轻这些意外后果至关重要。 Raising consumer awareness is vital to mitigate these unintended consequences.
