Abstract:

The Plug-in Vehicle Economics and Infrastructure: Economics and Carbon Benefits project is a strategic level analysis of the potential size of the market for plug-in vehicles, the total level of investment needed and the total carbon offset for the UK.

This report provides an in-depth qualitative viability analysis (supported by initial quantitative estimates) of the generic business models which may be effective during the initial launch / take-off of a plug-in vehicle market in the UK. It covers:

Methodology - this section describes the methodology, defines the business models considered, and outlines the scenarios used in the business model assessment.
Business viability summary - this section summarises the viability of the business models for each scenario highlighting the main reasons behind each assessment, taken from the more detailed analysis.
Business model analysis - this section gives detailed analysis of each business model in a consistent format that describes current and analogous experience, enablers, barriers, socio-economic benefits, strategic risk, political risk, subsidy, and legislation
Appendices - including take-up forecasts, sources, a list of interviewees, analysis of the differences between BEVs, REEVs and PHEVs, and a summary of relevant subsidy and legislation
