Results of the sensitivity analysis for EVs and ICEV. EFF overall EV efficiency (influenced by charge/discharge efficiency of the battery), Baseline Electricity mix Germany 2030 (EVs) and fossil diesel (ICEV), RN Renewable energy 50/50 solar–wind, B100 Diesel 100% biodiesel, B20 80% biodiesel / 20% fossil diesel, % Energy density percentage of the Mg–S battery energy density in the baseline (158.8 Wh/kg) to account for uncertainty. For the Mg–S EV, results are presented as a range of potential values (striped area) according to system efficiency EFF (0.8–0.95) and energy density (50–100% of baseline value)
