In this project the Institute of Transportation Studies (ITS) will summarize existing research and policy and develop a short paper on considerations for ZEV mandate and CO2 emissions regulation design in Australia. The aim of this will be to provide the Electric Vehicle Council (EVC) and their partners with materials and research to inform their work in improving zero emission vehicle (ZEV) and automotive emissions regulations in Australia. The project could also help inform state targets of 100% ZEV sales by 2035 though policies that may be used to reach this goal, in the absence of a national regulation. ITS will meet this aim through conducting primary and secondary research, and through sharing knowledge with the EVC, their members, and other stakeholders in Australia.
