Electric Vehicles, Tax incentives and Emissions: Evidence from Norway

Abstract: This paper empirically estimates the effects of electric vehicles (EVs) on passenger car emissions to inform the design of policies that encourage EV purchases in Norway. We use exceptionally rich data on the universe of cars and households from Norway, which has a very high share of EVs, thanks to generous tax incentives and other policies. Our estimates suggest that household-level emission savings from the purchase of additional EVs are limited, resulting in high implicit abatement costs of Norway's tax inc… Show more

Worldwide, many initiatives are being undertaken or considered to stimulate alternative fuels and electric vehicles (EVs), and the transformation to EVs is inevitable; however, thus far, Norway is one of the few countries to fully integrate EVs into the mobility market.…”
