The Economics of Electric Vehicles for Passenger Transportation

This book explores why and how developing countries should transition to electric mobility, and when it makes economic sense to do so. The book finds a strong economic case for EVs in many developing nations, particularly through electric buses and two- and three-wheeled vehicles. Drawing on modelling across 20 countries and real-world examples from Brazil and India’s electric bus fleets to battery swapping schemes in Asia and East Africa, it offers practical policy guidance for accelerating EV adoption. The publication is essential for those interested in sustainable transport and development.
