Abstract:

Electro-mobility and New Energy Vehicles (NEV) are important elements of the Chinese government’s strategy to promote climate-friendly and sustainable transport. In particular, the promotion of public transport and the adoption of New Energy Buses play a central role in realizing those ambitions. Supportive policies include subsidies for purchasing and operating New Energy Buses, as well as tax reductions and other incentives for phasing out and decommissioning buses with conventional combustion engines.

This report provides an overview of policies and measures implemented by the Chinese government in order to promote electric mobility and push the market uptake of New Energy Buses.
