EV Footprint

What is it?

This simulator is based on the latest studies and we built it to:

• simply compare carbon emissions through their lifecycle of most common types of cars.
• break down misconceptions about the electric car.
• help you estimate if you should switch to an electric vehicle.

Who created this tool?

This simulator was originally created as a side project by team members of Tennaxia. At Tennaxia, we help companies to effectively manage their sustainability, ESG, Carbon and EHS operations, measure their impact and achieve concrete progress.

Is it really open source?

Yes. We believe that trust and transparency go together, and we want the model and the hypotheses to be as transparent as possible.

How can I contribute?

Just open an issue in the project and describe the issue that you are facing or the feature request that your suggest. The project administrators will discuss it with you.
