a study by Bloomberg New Energy Finance, a focus group of powerful economic agency, has shown that the future of electric cars may not be as bright as it now appears.

at issue is the oil crisis will come to ride the popularization of electric cars, which now account for one percent of the vehicles circulation.

Bloomberg analysts have the problem in a simple way. Technological innovation has allowed lower the manufacturing costs of electric cars, which are more accessible gain market share.

In Portugal, sales soared 274.7 percent in 2015, more than double the European average (109 per cent) and well above the world average (60 percent).

But the increase in the number of electric cars on the road leads to the decrease in the number of conventional vehicles, driven by derivatives oil. And if the world economy has been slow to recover in the last two years, it is because of cheaper oil prices.

confimarem up forecasts for 2040, one in four cars on the road will be electric. It seems little, but it implies a cut of 13 million barrels of oil per day and an increase in demand for electricity corresponding to eight percent of all energy produced in the last year.

In 2040 , with prices falling as far (only the costs of batteries in 2015, down 35 percent), an electric vehicle can reach the market for less than 20,000 euros: cheaper, for example, than the familiar utility Toyota Auris.

at the current rate, anticipated analysts, the effects of this change in habits will already be felt in 2023, when they are accurate least two million barrels of oil per day, exactly the same amount that, when produced in excess, caused the oil crisis we are experiencing since 2014

a crisis that Portugal is a victim:. just remember that one of the reasons for the slow economic recovery is the slowdown in exports, which is due to cooling of the economies where we sell due to cheap oil …
