Description
Summary:Incentive policies play a key role in the development of new energy vehicles (NEVs) in China. With the analysis of 89 national and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (Jing-Jin-Ji) regional NEV policies from January 2006 to June 2018, this paper presents an extended category of subsidy policies. It shows that during the NEV adoption process, more and more emphasis has been laid on indirect subsidies. Although local NEV adoption is uneven and some cities lag behind the national pace to some extent, the regional coordination and integration has potential to boost the popularization of NEVs in an environmental and sustainable way. These findings help to build comprehensive policy systems for the maturity of NEV adoption in the future.
