...Egbue and Long (2012) found in their study among technology enthusiasts that 17% of the respondents identified lack of charging infrastructure as their biggest concern with EVs. Sierzchula et al. (2014) found that charging infrastructure (relative to population) is significantly positively related to EV market share across countries. In a regional and municipal level analysis of incentives in Norway, Mersky, Sprei, Samaras, and Qian (2016) found that EV charging infrastructure is the greatest predictor of EV uptake. Tran et al. (2013) draw similar conclusions through a Monte Carlo simulation model. The literature also looks at the question of what determines adequate charging infrastructure. Xi, Sioshansi, and Marano (2013) developed an optimisation model that locates Level 1 and Level 2 charging infrastructure within the central-Ohio region. By maximising service levels (amount of battery energy recharged and number of EVs recharged), they found that universities have the highest service level since multiple EVs are able to fully recharge throughout the day. Workplace charging is less effective because vehicles are normally parked all day long. Shopping locations only serve vehicles in the morning and afternoon and are restricted to a small group of vehicles. Through a discrete choice model done in Japan, Ito, Takeuchi, and Managi (2013) found that an EV user will have a lower willingness to pay for “quick charging” at a retail location (like outside a supermarket) if the user has “quick charge” capability at home. Moreover, the authors found that a robust battery-exchange network could be economical if new EV sales exceed 5%. Similarly, Schroeder and Traber (2012), Flores, Shaffer, and Brouwer (2016), and Madina, Zamora, and Zabala (2016) found that fast chargers are not profitable at low EV adoption and trip rates, particularly when people favour home charging....

Using data from a small BEV usage trial in Japan, with 24 private and 8 commercial vehicles, Sun, Yamamoto, and Morikawa (2016) found that private EV users are willing to detour up to...
