Norway's Efforts to Electrify Transportation
Rolling the snowball: Norway’s efforts to electrify transportation Nathan Lemphers Environmental Governance Lab Working Paper 2019-2 Rolling the snowball: Norway’s efforts to electrify transportation EGL Working Paper 2019-2 September 2019 Nathan Lemphers, Research Associate Environmental Governance Lab Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy University of Toronto [email protected] Norway’s policies to encourage electric vehicle (EV) adoption have been highly successful. In 2017, 39 per cent of all new car sales in Norway were all-electric or hybrid, making it the world’s most advanced market for electric vehicles (IEA 2018). This high rate of EV ownership is the result of 30 years of EV policies, Norway’s particular political economy, and significant improvements in EV and battery technology. This paper argues that Norway’s sustained EV policy interventions are not only starting to decarbonize personal transportation but also spurring innovative electrification efforts in other sectors such as maritime transport and short- haul aviation. To explain this pattern of scaling, the paper employs Bernstein and Hoffmann’s (2018) framework on policy pathways towards decarbonization. It finds political causal mechanisms of capacity building and normalization helped create a welcoming domestic environment to realize early uptake and scaling of electric vehicles, and subsequently fostered secondary scaling in other modes of transportation. The initial scaling was facilitated by Norway’s unique political economy. Ironically, Norway’s climate leadership is, in part, because of its desire to sustain oil and gas development. This desire steered the emission mitigation focus towards sectors of the economy that are less contentious and lack opposing incumbents. -

Business Model Innovation – the Solution for EV Producers
Business Model Innovation – the solution for EV producers A qualitative study on Business Model Innovation in the context of Electric Vehicles in the Nordics MASTER THESIS WITHIN: Business Administration NUMBER OF CREDITS: 30 ECTS PROGRAMME OF STUDY: Strategic Entrepreneurship AUTHORS: Jakubas Buchtojarovas, Velislav Malchev JÖNKÖPING May, 2018 1 Master Thesis in Business Administration Title: Business Model Innovation – the solution for EV producers A qualitative study on Business Model Innovation in the context of Electric Vehicles in the Nordics Authors: Jakubas Buchtojarovas and Velislav Malchev Tutor: Naveed Akhter Date: 2018-05-21 Key terms: Business Model, Business Model Innovation, Electric Vehicles, Nordics, Electric Mobility, Case study Abstract Electric Vehicles are a growing trend globally and are currently disrupting the conventional automotive industry, therefore firms in the sector need new business models around their new value propositions. The concept of business model innovation presents an interesting point of view towards the challenges those firms face and provide possible solutions for them. Literature on this relatively new topic is scarce and needs more cumulative empirical research. We engage in a multiple-case study and explore how entrepreneurial and incumbent electric vehicle companies in the Nordics use BMI to overcome their biggest challenges and advance the development of the sector. With our findings, we provide an insight of some of the newest advancements in the EV technology, investigate what are the key antecedents, moderators and outcomes of the BMI process for the researched companies and build on the existing literature on the topic. Finally, practitioners can gain better understanding of the concepts of BM and BMI process and their importance for surviving in the dynamic electric vehicle market. -

Now, however, they appear poised to make a come-back in certain markets, driven significantly by new battery technologies, building upon the technological evolution of hybrids, and motivated by new policies focused on reducing greenhouse gas pollutants. Understanding how this market is likely to evolve in different jurisdictions requires an understanding of the major factors, technical, economic, and societal, that are driving this change. This paper applies a technological innovation system framework consisting of seven indicators- knowledge development and diffusion, influence on the direction of search, entrepreneurial experimentation, market formation, legitimation, resources mobilization, and development of positive externalities- to examine Norway as a case-study of actors, institutions, and networks that have led to relatively high levels of electric vehicle adoption. Factors that appear to contribute strongly to Norway's battery-electric market shares include significant consumer incentives including purchase and in-use incentives. -
View Transportation & Air Quality
TRANSPORTATION & AIR QUALITY 140 | ARC GREEN COMMUNITIES 2020 CERTIFICATION SUBMISSION 39. COMMUTE OPTIONS DESCRIPTION OF MEASURE The local government discourages employees from driving alone by offering and subsidizing alternatives, such as a vanpool or carpool program, or subsidizing transit at a greater value than parking. The local government also offers incentives to reduce employee commutes during peak hours such as compressed work weeks, telecommuting, and/or flexible work schedules. To meet the intent of this measure, the local government must offer its employees one primary option and three supporting options. Primary Options: 1. At least $30 per month towards a transit pass or vanpool pass to each employee who commutes using transit or a vanpool. If the local jurisdiction offers a parking subsidy more than $30/month, this option’s value must be greater than that of the parking subsidy. 2. At least $30 per month to each employee who carpools with two or more passengers. If the local jurisdiction offers a parking subsidy more than $30/month, this option’s value must be greater than that of the parking subsidy. 3. A significant telecommuting or compressed work week program that reduces by at least 5 percent the number of employee commuting trips. Supporting commute options: 1. active participation in a voluntary regional air quality program through a local employer service organization or Georgia Commute Options program 2. active participation in carpool, vanpool and biking partner matching (such as through Georgia Commute Options) 3. pre-tax transit subsidy or vanpool subsidy deducted from employee paycheck 4. transit benefit of less than $30 per month 5. -

Electric Vehicles and Psychology
sustainability Review Electric Vehicles and Psychology Fabio Viola Dipartimento d’Ingegneria, University of Palermo, 90128 Palermo, Italy; [email protected] Abstract: The popularity of electric vehicles is evidenced by the broad range of manufacturers presenting new models of plug-in hybrid and battery vehicles. However, the success of the revolution or, rather, the rebirth of electric vehicles, is hanging by a thread, as it lacks the involvement of a large number of users, and many psychological mechanisms hinder it. What are users’ true feelings about this new world of vehicles? Are people ready for the fifth level of automation, i.e., fully automatic driving and the absence of the driving position? The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss the psychological aspects that influence the adoption of electric vehicles. Topics such as the chicken and egg paradox (electric vehicles and charging stations) and performance anxiety (regarding, e.g., range) are addressed. This review is characterized by contradictions and irony. Keywords: electric vehicles; range anxiety; chicken and egg paradox; battery; public perception; key motivators and barriers 1. Introduction Psychology is an integral part of our daily life. The perception of reality is the result of conditioning, which may be positive. The car user is inundated with information that valorizes aspects that often have little to do with driving itself. On the other hand, the ideology of the present reigns, which tries to ensure the preservation of the status quo. An ideology that can halt progress is thinking of the present as the child of the past, i.e., in which the teachings of the past are obsolete and desire for the future is neglected in favor of a more comfortable present. -
