Summary
The primary focus during the research stay at Institute for Transport Economics (TøI) will be on behavioural and demand modelling to gain a deeper understanding of the choices individuals make in relation to electric vehicles both with respect to acquiring an EV as well as their needs and barriers in relation to charging the EV. It is expected that the research stay at the Institute for Transport Economics will provide in-depth insights into the preferences and barriers that underlie individuals' choices regarding the adoption and charging needs of EVs. Furthermore, the research stay at TøI will strengthen collaboration among the research institutions, and it is expected that the stay will form the basis for joint applications in the future.
