摘要：Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are considered effective tools for reducing carbon emissions. Incentive policies play an important role in promoting the development of emerging industries, such as BEVs. The design of incentive policies to promote the diffusion of BEVs has been a critical focus of recent research. This study explores cost-effective financial incentive policies that consider regional heterogeneity. An agent-based model (ABM) is developed that considered the individual heterogeneity of consumers and competition between BEVs and traditional internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). The results indicate that consumer subsidies have a more direct promotional effect than manufacturer subsidies; however, this promotion needs to be sustained by ongoing subsidies. In addition, a policy mix is more efficient because an incentive policy can function better when combined with other policies. Furthermore, the inputs of subsidy are not "the more, the better," and appropriate mix of policies can result in better diffusion of BEVs. Finally, regional heterogeneities (e.g., potential market size and initial BEVs ownership share) are important when designing incentive policies. ? 2023, The Authors. All rights reserved.
