Do new energy vehicles emit radiation harmful to the human body?
1 Answers
New energy vehicles do emit radiation, but the impact on the human body is almost negligible. Currently, the actual radiation levels of most electric vehicles are below 10uT, which is even lower than the radiation from daily smartphone usage. Below are extended details: 1. International EMF Standards: The World Health Organization (WHO) advocates for the establishment of electromagnetic field limits and other control measures that provide the same or similar levels of health protection globally. It has endorsed guidelines developed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and encourages member states to adopt these international guidelines. Based on scientific assessments of health risks, exposure thresholds for electromagnetic fields have been established. The criterion for determining these thresholds is whether health hazards are detected above these levels. The ICNIRP guidelines set occupational exposure limits at 1/10 of the threshold and public exposure limits at 1/50. 2. China's Electromagnetic Environment Standard Development Principles: The ICNIRP recommended standards for electromagnetic radiation exposure limits are based on scientific data concerning thermal effects and immediate effects. Countries worldwide have developed national standards that are equal to or stricter than these recommendations. China's electromagnetic environment standards adopt the 'precautionary principle' recommended internationally to mitigate potential adverse effects from unknown factors. These standards reference ICNIRP guidelines with additional margins, resulting in stricter exposure limits than those set by ICNIRP.
