The relationship between electric vehicle adoption and electricity consumption: Evidence from Europe
The relationship between electric vehicle (EV) stock and electricity consumption is complex, with many factors influencing both variables. Furthermore, higher EV adoption can have adverse and unforeseen impacts on electrical networks and generation capacity requirements, necessitating the development of proactive policies and tariff decisions. To this end, this study investigates this relationship for 20 European countries from 2000 until 2022, utilising an Error Correction Model to estimate the impact of EV sales on electricity consumption. Results indicate positive and statistically significant results for certain sub-samples, which can have far-reaching implications for policymakers and generation and network capacity planners.
期刊介绍:
Utilities Policy is deliberately international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral. Articles address utility trends and issues in both developed and developing economies. Authors and reviewers come from various disciplines, including economics, political science, sociology, law, finance, accounting, management, and engineering. Areas of focus include the utility and network industries providing essential electricity, natural gas, water and wastewater, solid waste, communications, broadband, postal, and public transportation services.
Utilities Policy invites submissions that apply various quantitative and qualitative methods. Contributions are welcome from both established and emerging scholars as well as accomplished practitioners. Interdisciplinary, comparative, and applied works are encouraged. Submissions to the journal should have a clear focus on governance, performance, and/or analysis of public utilities with an aim toward informing the policymaking process and providing recommendations as appropriate. Relevant topics and issues include but are not limited to industry structures and ownership, market design and dynamics, economic development, resource planning, system modeling, accounting and finance, infrastructure investment, supply and demand efficiency, strategic management and productivity, network operations and integration, supply chains, adaptation and flexibility, service-quality standards, benchmarking and metrics, benefit-cost analysis, behavior and incentives, pricing and demand response, economic and environmental regulation, regulatory performance and impact, restructuring and deregulation, and policy institutions.
