“…However, challenges such as range anxiety and the perceived higher upfront costs of EVs still need to be addressed to facilitate wider adoption within the local market. In this context, optimizing financial management strategies becomes crucial to ensure the successful establishment and sustained growth of the EV market in Medan [28]. [35].…”

The global shift towards sustainable transportation, exemplified by the increasing adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs), represents a vital response to contemporary environmental and energy challenges. This study investigates the determinants of consumers’ Desire to Purchase EVs within the unique context of the Medan market, where consumer preferences and market dynamics differ from more globally examined settings. Additionally, it explores the mediating roles of Consumer Awareness Campaigns and Local Industry Partnerships in shaping purchase intent. Through a comprehensive survey of 832 respondents in Medan, Indonesia, the study reveals crucial insights. Government incentives, including tax breaks and rebates, emerge as influential factors, significantly increasing consumers’ inclination to adopt EVs. Equally vital is the accessibility and availability of charging infrastructure, which is pivotal in bolstering consumer confidence in EVs. Consumer perceptions and attitudes have a significant bearing on purchase intent, with positive perceptions regarding environmental benefits, cost savings, and driving experiences contributing to the heightened desire for EV ownership. Effective financial management strategies also play a positive role, emphasizing the significance of sound financial planning and resource allocation. Further-more, this research emphasizes the instrumental role of Consumer Awareness Campaigns in shaping purchase intent. These campaigns are a powerful tool for elucidating the multifaceted advantages of EV ownership, encompassing environmental consciousness, economic feasibility, and enhanced driving experiences. Local Industry Partnerships within the Medan EV market equally contribute to heightened purchase intent, reflecting the synergistic effects of collaborative initiatives.

“…Howarth et al [39], van den Bergh et al [40], and Pu Yang et al [41] conducted reviews of the SCC and estimated it using various models. Additionally, Khastar et al [42], Malladi et al [43], and Achariyaviriya et al [44] scrutinized the implications of the SCC in emissions reduction and other related issues. In this study, the SCC values derived from prior research were employed with consideration given to adapting the data to align with the nation's climate change policy and plan.…”

Thailand has formulated its climate change policy and updated the relevant plans and policies to align with the goal of achieving carbon neutrality and net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study investigated the optimal level of GHG mitigation in Thailand by taking into account the marginal abatement cost (MAC) and social cost of carbon (SCC). The research also evaluated how energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies could influence GHG reduction in the power and industrial sectors and illustrate policy recommendations that could be aligned with the 2020–2050 policy and plan period. The findings indicated that there could be instances where GHG mitigation potential would be insufficient to reach the national milestone. In such cases, it would become imperative to leverage all technologies within the marginal abatement cost curve (MACC) and also utilize the SCC for policy decision-making and meeting the desired goals. In certain scenarios, the adoption of additional technologies or measures would be necessary, such as flexible power generation and deploying carbon capture and storage or hydrogen, which are high-cost technologies. Furthermore, preparations should be made for multiple levels of climate change policies and plans beyond 2030.

“…where d is the distance in kilometers, s is the speed in km/h, 10 is the assumed kilometers per liter, and 2.007 is the fuel consumption rate in kgCO 2 eq/L [31]. The individual traveler's distance and travel time are calculated with Equation (2) from the simulation results to get each commuter emitted CO 2 emission.…”

The often-discussed issue of parental escorting of children to school and its potential disruption of traffic flow has been extensively examined in the literature. Still, the specific effects of traffic congestion remain understudied. To fill this gap, this study addresses the impacts of school trips on traffic congestion. An agent-based model is applied to simulate various scenarios and assess their impact. Our findings indicate that the traffic speed without school trips is higher speed during peak hours by around 8% and average travel time in the city is reduced significantly. We examine countermeasures: Firstly, flexible working hours can lead to a morning traffic speed improvement of approximately 1.9%. Secondly, staggered school schedules can result in a 6.9% increase in traffic speed at 7 a.m. Optimizing school loading spaces can also enhance road capacity, mitigating road lane blockages during drop-off and pick-up periods. This research sheds light on the impact of parent-escorting travel existence and offers potential solutions to alleviate traffic congestion.
