Estimating EV diffusion and charging infrastructure demand per neighbourhood

The transition from internal combustion cars towards electric vehicles (EV) is a massive operation within the mobility sector with obvious consequences for automotive industry, energy sector, and the built environment. In order to facilitate this transition it is relevant to quantify when, and where one can project the adoption of EVs. Based on the local adoption scenario’s one can also strategically plan the deployment of charging infrastructure. This research provides a detailed insight into the adoption of EVs by using a new bottom-up approach. In addition, estimates are given for quantity, and the type of charging infrastructure at neighbourhood level in the Netherlands till 2035
