Electric mobility comprises all street vehicles that are powered by an electric motor and primarily get their energy from the power grid. This includes battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), range-extended electric vehicles (REEVs). If electric groups are grouped in another way, it includes passenger lightduty vehicles (PLDVs), light commercial vehicles (LCVs), buses, trucks, two/three-wheelers. Aside from electric cars, the whole concept of electric mobility also includes the energy supply side as well as the charging and traffic infrastructure, since those components are interconnected and together, they lead to sustainable mobility. One thing all definitions have in common is the narrow interpretation of the term electric vehicles, which is based on the idea of electricity as "fuel." This was chosen for good reason. Because when you consider the entire energy chain, only electricity offers efficiency advantages and – as long as it comes from renewable sources – a significant reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (1). EVs were first invented in the mid 19-th century, however, the rise of internal combustion engines contributed to the decline of electric cars and led to its reintroduction in the last few decades as the environmental impact of a vehicle became high in priority
