From innovation to penetration: Calculating the energy transition time lag for motor vehicles

Author

  • Fridstrøm, Lasse

Abstract

To meet the targets laid down in the Paris agreement and in the European Union's climate policy documents, road vehicle fleets will have to undergo a massive energy transition in the decades ahead. New vehicles acquired need to be distinctly superior to the old vehicles scrapped, in terms of their energy efficiency and/or carbon intensity.
