This paper examines the determinants of the spatial distribution of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in Germany, a key element in the transition to a low-carbon economy. Using postcode-level geographic data and regression analysis, we investigate how factors such as population density,...

Many European companies face the challenge of lowering CO2 emissions from their company car fleets. A promising lever is to increase the notoriously low electric usage of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs). This paper examines whether home charging infrastructure can help achieve these...

This study presents a systematic review of the academic literature on electric and hybrid vehicles, their ecosystems, and supporting infrastructure over the period 2008-2024. Using the PRISMA methodology, the research evaluates related studies, exploring trends and developments in charging...

The electrification of heavy-duty road transport and logistics operations presents a significant challenge in meeting CO2 reduction goals. Despite increasing attention to battery-electric trucks (BETs) as a primary strategy among manufacturers, their market share remains limited in Europe and...

Battery electric trucks (BETs) are the most promising option for fast and large-scale CO2 emission reduction in road freight transport. Yet, the limited range and longer charging times compared to diesel trucks make long-haul BET applications challenging, so a comprehensive fast charging network...

This report evaluates potential competition issues in the provision of publicly accessible recharging infrastructure and related services for electric vehicles (EVs) across the EU27 + UK. It develops a taxonomy of possible competition concerns and collates evidence on whether there are existing...

Heavy-duty vehicles (HDV) account for less than 2-5% of the vehicles on the road in Europe but contribute to 15-22% of CO2 emissions from road transport. Battery electric trucks (BETs) could be deployed on a large scale to reduce greenhouse gas emissions but they require charging infrastructure...

Adequate public charging infrastructure for battery electric trucks (BETs) is crucial for electrifying road freight transport and, thus, curtailing greenhouse gas emissions. Although manufacturer announcements on BET sales targets are promising, many logistic companies still question their...

A comprehensive roll-out of public charging infrastructure will be costly. However, its impact on the diffusion of electric vehicles (EVs) is not clear at all. Our study aims at estimating the extent to which an increasing availability of public charging infrastructure promotes consumers’...

Modern power systems increasingly rely on distributed energy resources (DERs), which requires new planning practices. This paper proposes a strategy to solve the facility allocation problem for fast charging stations (FCSs) of electric vehicles (EVs). The mixed-integer nonlinear programming...

Battery-electric vehicles provide a pathway to decarbonize heavy-duty trucking, but the market for heavy-duty battery-electric semi-trailer trucks is nascent, and specific charging requirements remain uncertain. We leverage large-scale vehicle telematics data (205 million miles of driving) to...

This paper estimates an imperfect information discrete choice model of drivers' refueling preferences and analyzes the implications of these preferences for electric vehicle (EV) adoption. Drivers respond four times more to stations' long-run average prices than to current prices and value...

We develop a game-theoretic model to compare two electric vehicle (EV) policies, i.e., an electric vehicle subsidy (EVS) and a charging infrastructure subsidy (CIS), under different market structures. We find that when a monopoly EV manufacturer also builds and operates charging stations, EVS...

Many public charging stations for electric vehicles in the United States are slow chargers installed at the premises of pre-existing businesses such as grocery stores or restaurants. This paper investigates the incentives of these retail businesses to install and operate charging stations.First,...

Drawing on panel data from Germany, this paper estimates the relationship between charging infrastructure and the uptake of electric vehicles (EVs). We specify models with fixed effects and instrumental variables to gauge the robustness of our findings in the face of alternative channels through...

We study whether public charging infrastructure drives battery electric vehicle adoption. Our analysis is based on granular, annual information on the location of public charging infrastructure and the battery electric vehicle ownership rate across 356 Norwegian LAU-2 municipalities between 2009...

Facing climate change, The European Union has set ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets. Within Europe, heavy-duty vehicles (HDV) account for a quarter of greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector and therefore plays a central role in achieving the climate targets. A potential...

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) are widely considered a promising option to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in transport. The electricity used for charging is decisive for the environmental assessment of PEV. Most studies assume the average grid mix for charging. This article provides a...

With an increasing number of electric vehicles, the strategic planning of public charging infrastructure becomes more important. In this work, the infrastructure of the charging stations in a large city is simulated. Here, various influencing factors such as number of users, charging time,...
