Abstract:

This policy makers manual is prepared under the framework of the Global Environment Facility programme aimed at supporting low and middle income economies in their transition to electric mobility. It aims to serve as a guide for policy makers to effectively integrate electric vehicle charging into the grid, thereby supporting road transport electrification and decarbonisation. The key steps can be summarised as preparing institutions for the shift to electric mobility, assessing the impacts on the grid, deploying measures for grid integration and improving power system planning. Each of these steps is informed by insights from various studies and inputs form international stakeholders, with recommendations based on best practices from around the world.
