Addressing these challenges is crucial for the broader acceptance and successful integration of electric vehicles into mainstream transportation systems . Research in these areas should aim to address technological limitations , improve performance , reduce costs , enhance sustainability , and further accelerate the adoption of EVs [ 8 ].
CONCLUSION
The emergence of the electric vehicle sector stands as a potent force propelling the adoption of Environmental , Social , and Governance principles . The environmental advantages of decreased emissions and the integration of renewable energy align with the environmental facet of ESG . Concurrently , electric vehicles drive social progress by improving air quality , bolstering public health , and stimulating inclusive economic growth . The industry ’ s commitment to responsible corporate governance and technological advancement further emphasises its alignment with ESG principles .
Collectively , research indicates that global collaboration and policy interventions wield a substantial influence on global electric vehicle uptake , emphasising the imperative for collaborative efforts among stakeholders across diverse sectors to optimise the efficacy of these policies , and standardisation efforts to establish common standards for charging infrastructure , batteries , and vehicle-to-grid technologies .
