Review of Environmental Economics and Policy, 2021, vol. 15, issue 2, 352 - 359

Abstract: Governments around the world are planning to accelerate their efforts to decarbonize and electrify their transportation sector. In this article, I describe the key role charging stations play in electric vehicle (EV) markets and discuss how a lack of charging infrastructure can pose a barrier to EV adoption. Then I discuss Norway’s experience with incentives for charging infrastructure and consumer subsidies. I conclude by highlighting key lessons from Norway and their implications for designing effective policies to support EV adoption.
