Assessing the Potential Impacts of Toll Discounts on Zero-Emission Vehicle Adoption

Research Product Type
Research Report
This report assesses the potential use of express lane discounts as a driver of zero-emission vehicle adoption by testing the effectiveness of a range of discount scenarios. The researchers find that providing even very large discounts for express lane usage to zero-emission vehicles would only slightly increase vehicle sales but would make these lanes much less capable of serving their other purposes. As part of this project, an Excel tool was developed that allows users to test their own scenarios.
