   报告简介: 

  Electric  vehicles (EVs) are likely to emerge as the primary means of  zero-emission road transport. China is ahead of many other countries in  EV adoption. This study uses a three-dimensional dataset to estimate the  effect of purchase subsidies for domestic EVs on adoption in 316 cities  in China over January 2016–December 2019. An instrumental variable  approach is pursued that involves using the cancellation of local  subsidies by the central government as an instrument. The findings  indicate that China’s purchase subsidies have made a major contribution  to encouraging uptake of domestic EVs but have discouraged uptake of  imported EVs. Higher consumer awareness of subsidies is associated with a  larger proportional effect. We calculate the implied marginal subsidy  cost per tonne of CO2 emissions reduced via this mechanism. We also  discuss additional benefits, including the emergence of a new clean  technology sector that will be competitive without subsidy support.
