Understanding investment, trade, and battery waste management linkages for a globally competitive electric vehicles manufacturing sector

2022

Author(s): Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations (ICRIER), ClimateWorks Foundation, International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD), Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation

Increasing the uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) is a strategic objective of the Government of India. The development of the Indian EV landscape, however, is likely to entail momentous investment and for this level of investment to take place, India's EV ecosystem will have to be globally competitive.

What Affects Consumers’ Intention To Recycle Retired EV Batteries in China?

2022

Author(s): Dong B, Ge J

To understand consumers’ intention to recycle EVs’ retired batteries, a study using the theory of planned behavior, value-belief-norm (VBN) theory, and the benefit-risk analysis (BRA) model was combined with three extended factors, namely, recycling experience, policy incentives, and product after-sales.

Determinants of Adoption Intention of Battery Swap Technology for Electric Vehicles

2022

Author(s): Adu-Gyamfi G, Song H, Nketiah E, Obuobi B, Adjei M, Cudjoe D

In this study, the adoption intention of BST for EVs is explored as BST′ success depends on consumer acceptance to guarantee pro-environmental consumption and pollution reduction. The current study extends the theory of planned behavior (TPB) with perceived benefits and knowledge.

Synergies Between Repositioning and Charging Strategies for Shared Autonomous Electric Vehicle Fleets

2022

Author(s): Dean MD, Gurumurthy KM, de Souza F, Auld J, Kockelman KM

This study couples charging and repositioning events to improve service quality (rider wait times), reduce empty travel due to repositioning or charging, and improve fleet utilization (average daily trips per vehicle and charging queues).
