Elektrische auto\u2019s blijken een onverwachte buffer te vormen tegen de wereldwijde oliecrisis. Alleen al in de Benelux vervangen elektrische auto\u2019s volgens de energiethinktank Ember jaarlijks naar schatting $1 miljard aan olie.<\/p>\n

In de hele EU heeft elektrische mobiliteit in slechts zes maanden tijd $3,1 miljard aan olieverbruik voorkomen. En nu batterij-elektrische auto\u2019s in september goed waren voor meer dan de helft van de nieuwe registraties in Belux, neemt dat voordeel op het gebied van energiezekerheid steeds verder toe.<\/p>\n

Electric mobility is increasingly about more than cutting emissions. As geopolitical tensions disrupt oil supplies and push up prices, every gasoline or diesel car replaced by an EV helps reduce Europe's dependence on imported fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

Volgens Ember, een in Londen gevestigde onafhankelijke denktank op het gebied van energie die pleit voor een snellere overgang naar schone energie, hebben elektrische auto\u2019s tussen maart en augustus 2026 in olie-importerende landen naar schatting 200 miljoen vaten ruwe olie, ter waarde van $20 miljard, vervangen.<\/p>\n

De cijfers zijn afkomstig uit de onlangs gelanceerde wereldwijde EV-tracker, die 56 landen bestrijkt. China was goed voor $14 miljard, gevolgd door de Europese Unie met $3,1 miljard.<\/p>\n

Hoewel Ember grotendeels uitgaat van offici\u00eble registratiegegevens, berekent het de besparingen op olie op basis van veronderstelde rijpatronen en brandstofverbruik, in plaats van op onafhankelijk gemeten dalingen in de olie-import.<\/p>\n

Benelux: 2,3 miljoen elektrische voertuigen, $1 miljard aan bespaarde olie<\/h4>\n

An analysis by Newmobility.news of Ember's underlying datasets reveals that Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg together have nearly 2.3 million battery-electric and plug-in hybrid cars on the road.<\/p>\n

Hun gezamenlijke vloot vervangt jaarlijks naar schatting 10,24 miljoen vaten olie-equivalent, ofwel ongeveer 28.000 vaten per dag.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands leads with 1.39 million EVs, displacing $540 million worth of oil annually. Belgium follows with nearly 842,000 vehicles and $438.5 million, while Luxembourg's 65,200 EVs account for another $43.3 million.\u00a0Together, that represents $1.02 billion at Ember's assumed Brent crude price of $99.80 per barrel.<\/p>\n

These are modeled, annualized estimates, not measured cash savings. They depend on assumptions about mileage, vehicle efficiency, and the combustion cars being replaced. Nevertheless, they illustrate electrification's growing economic significance.<\/p>\n

Belgi\u00eb overschrijdt de drempel van 50%<\/h4>\n

The latest registration figures suggest the Benelux's oil-displacement potential is still expanding rapidly. According to Febiac and Belgium's federal mobility administration, battery-electric vehicles accounted for a een recordaantal van 50,91 TP3T aan nieuwe registraties<\/a> in Belgi\u00eb en Luxemburg samen in september, tegenover 46,2% in augustus.<\/p>\n

Belgium's cumulative BEV market share reached 39.1% over the first nine months of 2026, up from 34.7% in 2025. Private buyers accounted for 20.2% of BEV registrations, although company cars continue to dominate the transition.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands is even further ahead in Ember's figures, with BEVs representing 41.3% of new registrations through September. Including plug-in hybrids, its electrified share reached almost 63%.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, Belgium's electric fleet is only 61% as large as the Dutch fleet but delivers an estimated 81% of the Dutch fleet's oil displacement.<\/p>\n

Differences in driving patterns and vehicle composition may explain part of that gap, although Ember's methodology does not establish a definitive cause.<\/p>\n

Van klimaatbeleid tot energiezekerheid<\/h4>\n

Elsewhere in Europe, the economic impact is already substantial. Germany's EV fleet displaced approximately $760 million worth of oil between March and August, while France accounted for $560 million.<\/p>\n

Denmark offers an even more striking example: its electric fleet displaces an estimated 6.4 million barrels annually, equivalent to 13% of the country's total oil consumption in 2025.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ondertussen breidt de wereldwijde overstap naar elektrische voertuigen zich uit tot buiten de traditionele bolwerken. De marktaandeel van volledig elektrische auto\u2019s bedroeg in de eerste acht maanden van 2026 wereldwijd 18%, een stijging ten opzichte van 16% een jaar eerder.<\/p>\n

Buiten China en de Verenigde Staten steeg de verkoop van BEV\u2019s met 45%, waarbij opkomende markten zoals India, Brazili\u00eb en Vietnam aan kracht wonnen.<\/p>\n

De VS steken daar juist met kop en schouders bovenuit. Het marktaandeel van volledig elektrische auto\u2019s (BEV\u2019s) is daar gedaald tot ongeveer 6%, en 49 van de 56 landen die door Ember worden gevolgd, melden nu een hoger aandeel elektrische auto\u2019s.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Minder olie, maar niet zonder kosten<\/h4>\n

Ember's calculations are not a complete economic balance sheet. They do not deduct the costs of electricity production, charging infrastructure, or EV purchases. Plug-in hybrids also introduce uncertainty because their actual fuel savings depend heavily on how often drivers recharge.<\/p>\n

Bovendien wordt de verdrongen olie berekend op basis van een hypothetisch wagenpark van voertuigen op verbrandingsmotoren, in plaats van rechtstreeks gemeten bij raffinaderijen of brandstofpompen.<\/p>\n

Toch wordt de onderliggende boodschap steeds relevanter voor Europa. Elk vat dat niet langer nodig is voor het wegvervoer, vermindert de kwetsbaarheid voor internationale verstoringen van de aanvoer en prijsschokken.<\/p>\n

In de Benelux, waar de afhankelijkheid van ge\u00efmporteerde olie nog steeds aanzienlijk is, wordt elektrische mobiliteit steeds meer dan alleen een klimaatdoelstelling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
