Economics and Carbon Benefits
A strategic level analysis of the potential size of the market for plug-in vehicles, the total level of investment needed and the total carbon offset for the UK.
About the project
- Analysis of the potential size of the market for plug-in vehicles in the UK
- Analysis of the potential total level of investment needed in the UK
- Analysis of the potential total level of carbon offset in the UK
This project provided a strategic level analysis of the potential size of the market for plug-in vehicles, the total level of investment needed and the total carbon offset for the UK.
The analysis was conducted against a set of scenarios including technology breakthrough, macro-economics and government policy. It determined the viability of different pathways to a self-sustaining mass market for plug-in vehicles.
The findings of the project influenced our 2013 report - 'An affordable transition to sustainable and secure energy for light vehicles in the UK'
