- Abstract
The Greater Bay Area (GBA) accounts for a high percentage of pollution due to the large number of internal combustion engines. In the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in internal combustion engines vehicles while electric vehicles have not taken off yet in GBA. To a certain extent, the acceptance of electric vehicles is still questionable from the industrial practitioners and local communities. As such, this research study aims to identify the challenges and opportunities of electric vehicles in GBA to address the future direction of electric vehicles in GBA. In this study, it identifies technology and economy as the main driving forces behind the development of electric vehicles. Furthermore, sustainability, safety, and the life of the batteries may induce the slow adoption of electric vehicles. As expected, the study develops a research agenda and contributes new knowledge in the field of electric vehicle.
