TLDR
In this article, the authors evaluate the implications of a tax-induced EV transition in Iceland for GHG mitigation, energy security, and economic benefits, and show that the overall macroeconomic benefits will be negligible in the long term as road electrification is deepened.About:

An evaluation of the cost-competitiveness of maritime fuels – a comparison of heavy fuel oil and methanol (renewable and natural gas) in Iceland
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted an extended cost-competitiveness comparison concerning three fuels: conventional methanol (NG), renewable methenol (RN) and heavy fuel oil (HFO) in the context of the Icelandic maritime sector.

The role of geothermal resources in sustainable power system planning in Iceland
Nathalie Spittler,Brynhildur Davidsdottir,Ehsan Shafiei,Jonathan Leaver,Eyjolfur Ingi Asgeirsson,Hlynur Stefansson +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the implications of transition to electric vehicles as a decarbonisation strategy in Iceland and use the energy and transport system model (UniSyD_IS) linked to a geothermal resource dynamics model.

Decarbonization scenarios for Reykjavik’s passenger transport: The combined effects of behavioural changes and technological developments
Kevin Joseph Dillman,Michał Czepkiewicz,Jukka Heinonen,Reza Fazeli,Áróra Árnadóttir,Brynhildur Davíðsdóttir,Ehsan Shafiei +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a scenario analysis using the Reykjavik capital area as a case study, developing a business-as-usual case and five additional What-If (What-If) scenarios using the story-and-simulation approach, modelling and decomposing the effects of axis-based technological and behavioural/urban form changes, estimating both direct and indirect emissions for each scenario.

What are the roles of consumers, automobile production enterprises, and the government in the process of banning gasoline vehicles? Evidence from a tripartite evolutionary game model
Yajie Liu,Feng Dong +1 more
TL;DR: Based on co-evolutionary game theory, this article considered consumers, automobile production enterprises, and the government involved in banning gasoline vehicles, and found that when the potential benefits of enterprises selling gasoline vehicles exceeded the potential penalties, and when positive supervision for the government was less than the potential benefit of negative supervision, the policy of eliminating gasoline vehicles became invalid.

What are the roles of consumers, automobile production enterprises, and the government in the process of banning gasoline vehicles? Evidence from a tripartite evolutionary game model
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors considered consumers, automobile production enterprises, and the government involved in banning gasoline vehicles, and found that when the potential benefits of enterprises selling gasoline vehicles exceeded the potential penalties, and when positive supervision for the government was less than the potential costs of negative supervision, the policy of eliminating gasoline vehicles became invalid.

A socio-technical analysis of low-carbon transitions: introducing the multi-level perspective into transport studies
TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-level perspective (MLP) is presented as a heuristic framework to analyze the interactions between industry, technology, markets, policy, culture and civil society.

A transitions model for sustainable mobility
Jonathan Köhler,Lorraine Whitmarsh,Björn Nykvist,Michel Schilperoord,Noam Bergman,Alex Haxeltine +5 more
TL;DR: The model shows that technological transitions are most likely, while biofuels and ICE-electric hybrids are the main alternatives to the regime in the next 10-30Â years, because they fit better into current infrastructures.

Modeling technology diffusion of complementary goods: The case of hydrogen vehicles and refueling infrastructure
TL;DR: In this article, a system dynamics model was created to investigate the vehicle-infrastructure phenomenon currently inhibiting the growth of hydrogen transportation systems, and the authors concluded that a coordinated policy approach that simultaneously encourages both the purchase of hydrogen vehicles and the building of hydrogen infrastructure is the most effective approach for rapid vehicle and infrastructure adoption.
