“green” fuels.
Thus, the volume of global electric car sales this year are expected to BloombergNEF decrease by 18%. Traditional cars will be even worse: a decline in their sales is expected to reach 23%.
Reuters noted that filling tanks of all types of transport — half of all oil demand in the world.
Some analysts thus expect the growth in oil demand: if in 2019 the world consumes 100 million barrels per day, in 2027-2028 demand is expected to increase to 106.5-107 million barrels.
But given that some European countries plan to ban the sale of new diesel and petrol cars at all, and the citizens after the pandemic can stop loving to travel by plane,

predict that the share of electric cars among all cars in 2040 will reach 31%.
