About the SSR Toolkit

Welcome to the supply-side regulation (SSR) toolkit! The SSR Toolkit is designed to serve as a comprehensive resource for government decision makers including policymakers, regulatory agencies, and any supporting organizations committed to electrification of the light-duty vehicle transportation sector. By providing detailed information on the design of SSRs, this Toolkit equips decision makers with the tools they need to craft effective, contextually appropriate policies. Whether working in departments of transportation, environment, or energy, decision makers will find clear guidance on regulatory design with the intent of increasing the adoption of zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) and/or improving vehicle economy.

The SSR Toolkit is comprised of five main sections:

  • Introduction
  • Assessing readiness & policy context
  • Building the supply-side regulation
  • Navigating design interactions & tradeoffs
  • Metrics & measurement methods
