In fact, a battery system can perform more than a dozen tasks, from sending short bursts of power to stabilize the electric grid to releasing a steady supply of electricity over a longer period of time when there is a lot of demand for power.
The real culprits are diesel burning trucks and buses (many of which are still operating at Euro III emission levels), factories, and the coal-fired power plants that will supply the electricity for the electric vehicles.
In electric trains, the braking energy is converted into electricity and fed back into the overhead power supply.
On July 15, 1996, President Bill Clinton issued Executive Order No. 13010, in which he identified eight infrastructure systems critical to the nation's survival: telecommunications, electric power systems, oil and gas storage, transportation, banking and finance, storage and transportation, water supply systems, and emergency services (including medical, police, fire and rescue, and continuity of government).
