“…The analysis revealed the most preferred overall was 'provision of a network of fast chargers around the country', appealing most to the Anxious (56.2%), then the EV Owners (53.4%) and Positives (48.1%). Public installation of fast chargers has twice the impact on EV sales, compared to slower chargers [53], and are considered essential [54] for enabling longer trips than an EV's range, thus increasing a motorist's self-efficacy.…”

Actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are required from all actors. Adopting plug-in electric vehicles (EV) would reduce light motor vehicle travel emissions, a significant and rising emissions source. To encourage EV uptake, many governments have implemented policies which may be less effective than desired. Using New Zealand as a case study, we surveyed private motorists. The results show that consumers are heterogeneous, with varying car-buying motivations, perceptions, attitudes to EVs and awareness of policies. Uniquely, we segmented motorists into four attitudinal groups to ascertain characteristics potentially affecting EV readiness to provide evidence to improve policies and aid social marketing. Our results show the next-most-ready to buy EVs are early mainstream consumers—designated the EV Positives—who were most concerned about vehicle range, perceptions of EV expense, charging-related inconvenience and the unknown value proposition of batteries, and were relatively unaware of incentives compared to EV Owners. The EV Positives favored incentives designed to effect purchase price reductions and increase nation-wide fast-charger deployment. To increase awareness of EVs and shift perceptions of EV expense and inconvenience, we suggest policies that potentially increase EV adoption rates and suggest reframing the language to appeal to EV Positives through information programs. Increasing EV procurement by organizations could increase opportunities for positive information dissemination via employees.

“…This paper contributes to several literatures. First, the literature on charging stations has focused mainly on the direct causal effect of charging stations and charging station subsidies on EV sales (Springel, 2021;Li et al, 2017;Remmy, 2022;van Dijk, Delacrétaz, and Lanz, 2022;Yu, Li, and Tong, 2016;Fournel, 2022;Cole et al, 2021;Ma and Fan, 2020;Ledna et al, 2022;Gnann, Plötz, and Wietschel, 2019). My study offers a first analysis to quantify the elasticity of charging station supply with respect to charging station subsidies.…”

“…• In China's core cities, most residents live in apartments without private parking lots. Hence, drivers must rely on public charging and swapping services for power supply [18]. • With the promotion of BSS modes, the BSS service network is maturing in the transportation system, and EV drivers can reach nearby BSSs within an acceptable traveling distance (e.g., 5-10 km) [19].…”

The population of electric vehicles (EVs) has grown rapidly over the past decade due to the development of EV technologies, battery materials, charger facilities, and public charging services. Many governments have implemented plans to ban fossil fuel vehicles considering the significance of EVs in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, due to the battery material characteristics and charger power limitations, the EV charging process requires more time than is needed to fill a non-EV with fuel at a gasoline station, causing drivers to experience range anxiety and impeding the promotion of EVs. Hence, the battery swapping station (BSS) model has been proposed as an alternative method. Recently, researchers have studied the BSS approach by proposing various operation systems and optimization methods, and BSS service operators have successfully implemented swapping at commercial and private stations. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art BSS literature and business models, where the BSS offers a recharged battery to an incoming EV with a low state-of-charge. First, four operation modes are presented: a single BSS, multiple BSSs, an integrated BSS and battery charging station (BCS), and multiple BSSs and BCSs. Then, the BSS decision scenarios are surveyed in relation to five operational areas, i.e., charging schedule, service policy, construction and planning, dispatching and routing, and power management, where the scenarios are compared in terms of the BSS mode, decision maker, EV category, number of battery types, vehicle to grid, and focus and objective. Finally, the survey concludes with a discussion of several future research directions for EV BSSs.
