How Shenzhen, China pioneered the widespread adoption of electric vehicles in a major city: Implications for global implementation

Abstract: The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is an important way to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. The city of Shenzhen, in southern China, has focused on developing policies to encourage EV implementation over the past decade and now has the most EVs of any city in the world, including the largest e‐bus and e‐taxi fleets. This paper reviews Shenzhen's innovative incentive policies and business models with respect to the potential for other cities and regions to learn from the city's experiences… Show more

“…Decarbonising the road transport sector will require mass penetration of alternative technologies, and electric vehicles (EVs) are seen as a very promising option (Diao et al, 2016;Hagman et al, 2016;Andwari et al, 2017;Hardman et al, 2017;Hao et al, 2017;Wang et al, 2017;Cavallaro et al, 2018;Gómez Vilchez et al, 2019;He et al, 2019;Li et al, 2020).…”

“…We are not arguing that additional policies are not worth pursuing, and there is evidence that in some contexts they can work(Langbroek et al, 2016;Figenbaum, 2017;Li et al, 2020;Wang et al, 2019;Yu et al, 2018;Wang et al, 2017). In addition, some authors suggest that the development of a fast and reliable charging infrastructure is the most effective policy any government could implement(Bakker and Trip, 2013;Sierzchula et al, 2014;Lieven, 2015;Bonges III and Lusk, 2016;Mersky et al, 2016;Egbue et al, 2017;Wang et al, 2017;Santos and Davies, 2020).…”

“…It was not unusual that Shenzhen was covered by a blanket of haze continuously from October to January [12,20,21]. Fortunately, with the concerted efforts from the Government and private sectors such as using cleaner fuels for vehicles and power generation [22][23][24][25] and adopting low energy-intensive production methods [10,26,27], the number of haze days in Shenzhen fell dramatically in recent years [28,29].…”

“…at the end of 2018, the number of charging stations in the world exceeded 5 million [3][4][5]. most of them are concentrated in several leading countries [6][7][8][9]. in most countries, charging infrastructure is developed unevenly.…”
