Impact of electric vehicles on the oil and gas industry

For the first time, oil and gas companies are feeling threatened by EVs. A combination of factors are responsible for this. As fossil fuels are chief sources of greenhouse gas emissons, environmentalists worldwide have lobbied time and time again for their usage to be reduced through mandates on fuel efficiencies and imposition of stringent vehicular emission norms.

With the improvements in battery technology the cost of batteries, and in turn, EVs are coming down and becoming more viable options for ICE-based vehicles. This has encouraged some countries to bring in the process of phasing-out gasoline-powered vehicles.
