Fast-charging station here, please! User criteria for electric vehicle fast-charging locations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an empirical study targeting the analysis of evaluation criteria for fast-charging locations regarding both position and concrete realization. But the evaluation criteria based on earlier studies were ranked, and an overall consensus was detected in previous focus group discussions but also in this quantitative approach.

A natural resource-based view of climate change: Innovation challenges in the automobile industry
TL;DR: In this paper, the Natural-Resource-Based View is used as a novel framework to categorize technological innovations into two important sets: product stewardship and clean technology, with positive effects on further CO 2 emission reductions.

Battery electric vehicles: What is the minimum range required?
TL;DR: An optimization model is developed to identify the minimum required BEV battery ranges at the individual level, using real world vehicle travel data and charging station location information, and shows that with home charging and the existing public charging infrastructure, it is feasible to use existing BEV models to replace a significant portion of gasoline vehicles without sacrificing individual mobility needs.

The theory of planned behavior
TL;DR: Ajzen, 1985, 1987, this article reviewed the theory of planned behavior and some unresolved issues and concluded that the theory is well supported by empirical evidence and that intention to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted with high accuracy from attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control; and these intentions, together with perceptions of behavioral control, account for considerable variance in actual behavior.

Giving Green to Get Green: Incentives and Consumer Adoption of Hybrid Vehicle Technology
TL;DR: In this paper, the relative efficacy of state sales tax waivers, income tax credits and non-tax incentives for hybrid-electric vehicle adoption in the United States has been studied and shown that the type of tax incentive offered is as important as the value of the tax incentive.

Electric vehicles: How much range is required for a day’s driving?
TL;DR: In this article, a full year of high-resolution driving data from 484 instrumented gasoline vehicles in the US is used to analyze daily driving patterns, and from those infer the range requirements of electric vehicles (EVs).
