.@JonnAxsen tells us all about simulating automaker responses to climate policy @ #TRBAM 👀@J_P_Vicente

Check out @Zoe_E_Long talk about barriers to EV adoption and the need for a national ZEV Mandate.

Why do citizens support climate policies? Our results find that those with stronger altruistic values and greater trust in their government are more likely to support effective climate policies. Article freely available at: doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.…

Does social influence matter? New analysis finds that peer attitudes can increase consumer preferences for electric vehicles: doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.…

How do we create a more sustainable transportation system? SFU professor @JonnAxsen and researcher @Zoe_E_Long say strong, sustained climate policies are key to meeting our #GHG reduction goals. youtu.be/nzlt_4DmP7I #SimonFraserU #SFUEnvironment @SFU_START

We need strong, sustained climate policies in the transport sector to meet our GHG reduction goals - @JonnAxsen and @Zoe_E_Long make the case. Thanks to @PICSCanada and @SFUENV for the support. youtube.com/watch?v=nzlt_4…

Newly published research from @JonnAxsen & @todd_brunner examines how and why Canadians in different regions support and oppose fossil fuel and energy projects. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.erss…

A strong, national ZEV mandate can help Canada achieve its 2030 and 2040 #EV adoption targets - while also boosting Canada's ZEV production and economy to CAD $152 billion by 2040, finds a new report by Navius Research and @JonnAxsen Read the report: theicct.org/publications/z…

@JonnAxsen and @Zoe_E_Long co-authored a chapter in a new book on understanding consumer adoption and use of #EVs : #toc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9… Great work to the other authors @fsprei @PatrickPlotz @alanjenn @scottiehardman and others!

New research by Amy Miele & @jonnAxsen finds that EV charging infrastructure has little impact on uptake of EVs. Focus should be on home/workplace charging they find. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

An Energy Group article by Benjamin Sovacool, @steve_r_sorrell and @JonnAxsen is the most cited article in Energy Research & Social Science. You can read it here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

There are trade-offs among policy approaches to push ZEV sales: new open-access article from @JonnAxsen presents a framework that policymakers can use to identify such trade-offs and the policies most suitable in their jurisdictions. doi.org/10.1016/j.erss…

Reducing #FreightShipping emissions remain a challenge, new research from @JonnAxsen gives some policy insights: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Take a look at new research by @JonnAxsen on persisting consumer confusion and lack of awareness about #ElectricVehicle s in #Canada. Dealerships, #advocacy groups, PEV adoption modelers & researchers take note. ... bit.ly/2Pa1J7c

Ambitious fuel economy standards like CAFE or the EU CO2 fleet targets require #ElectricVehicles . But how many? Here is our new paper for the EU targets: authors.elsevier.com/a/1Zphf14YGgbV… short answer: 30 - 40 % seem required in the EU in 2030.

Latest research from @MojtabaLajevar2, @JonnAxsen & @currancrawford compares pathways to reduce freight emissions in BC - all electric drivetrains emit the fewest GHGs but plug-in drivetrains have lower abatement costs doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.…

What is dissuading buyers from purchasing electric vehicles? @JonnAxsen, Director of @SFU_START, says that only 18% of new car buyers in Canada knew of a nearby charging station and only 22% reported being familiar with how plug-in cars work 🍃🚗 pbs.org/newshour/scien…

New research from @JonnAxsen finds that up to 21% of new car buyers would choose a ZEV when prices are lower, and consumers gravitate towards PHEVs over BEVs and fuel cell vehicles

Will GM's call inspire Canadian policymakers to put in strong ZEV policy north of the border? @SFU_START @equiterre
