E-mobility Policy Tracker: Understanding the Progress and Gaps in Electric Mobility Policy Measures in Developing Countries
摘要
The EU-supported SOLUTIONSplus global e-mobility project, together with the Asian Transport Outlook project - supported by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) - have developed an E-mobility Policy Tracker that pursues better understanding of the state of policy measures for accelerating the transition to e-mobility in developing countries which then contributes towards pursuing holistic, time sensitive and context appropriate policy measures and packages. The E-mobility Policy Tracker focuses on three key areas: vehicles, charging equipment, infrastructure, and the provision of relevant services. The tracker also categorizes policy measures according to the different portions of the e-mobility ecosystem, such as equipment development, infrastructure provision, equipment procurement, service provision, integration, usage, and maintenance. The E-mobility Policy Tracker also considers the wide range of policy initiatives used by governments to encourage e-mobility such as: regulations, institutional measures, partnerships, demonstration actions, informational measures, fiscal incentives and disincentives, and non-fiscal incentives and disincentives. The paper presents the results of application of the E-mobility Tracker in 16 countries across the developing south (Armenia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Ecuador, Fiji, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nepal, Philippines, Rwanda, Tanzania, Thailand, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam). It reports the current state of policy measures in these countries, as well as priority gaps that need to be addressed in the countries.
