Critical Analysis on the Implementation Barriers and Consumer Perception Toward Future Electric Mobility

2022

Author(s): Chidambaram K, Ashok B, Vignesh R, Deepak C, Ramesh R, Narendhra TMV, Muhammad Usman K, Kavitha C

This article investigates the barriers and infers the comparative order of resolution for each barrier based on its priority to be identified and overcome. Consumers are the major influencers of electric vehicle demand and acceptance, so barrier analysis is carried out based on their opinions.

This study aims to identify the key potential barriers based on expert and customers’ perspectives. This study adopted the fuzzy DEMATEL method to identify the potential barriers based on expert opinion data and the Relative Importance Index (RII) method for prioritizing the barriers based on customers’ perspectives.

REN21. 2022. Renewables 2022: global status report

2022

Author(s): REN21 Secretariat

The report observed much of the growth in electrification can be attributed to targets and policy support for electric vehicles, in addition to the rising economic competitiveness, technological advancement and model availability of these vehicles. In 2021, electric car sales totalled 6.6 million worldwide, more than doubling from 2020, while sales of other electric vehicles such as two- and three wheelers and buses also saw significant increases.

Battery electric vehicle access in Europe: a comparison of rural, intermediate, and urban regions

2022

Author(s): Morrison K, Wappelhorst S

This paper analyzes electric passenger car uptake in urban, intermediate, and rural regions in 17 European countries, with a focus on the latter. Rural regions generally see higher levels of passenger car usage and lower levels of public transportation availability compared to urban regions, while having higher possible access to home charging. Further understanding of how the rural battery electric vehicle (BEV) market is developing, and analysis of policies and actions in rural regions with high registration shares, can help to address inequities in electric vehicle access.

Scaling U.S. zero-emission shipping: potential hydrogen demand at Aleutian Islands ports

2022

Author(s): Georgeff E, Mao X, Rutherford D

The study findings make a strong case for federal funding to help jumpstart hydrogen bunkering at Aleutian ports. The favorable geography, significant latent demand, and untapped renewable energy potential in Alaska make this a unique opportunity for investment. That could take place through federal programs like the $2.25 billion set aside for port infrastructure under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law passed by Congress in 2021.
