A quote on the subject:

“The energy transition needed to meet decarbonization targets will require flexibility and the mobilisation of decentralised power. Electro-mobility is a key part of the tool set offering demand flexibility, through storage capacity. That it offers clean mobility as well means that it must form the core of an integrated approach to decarbonisation.”
