Governments and public bodies in general are taking steps towards overcoming these barriers by, among others, setting up regulatory requirements regarding standardisation, customer information and recommending objectives of publicly accessible charging infrastructure. However, the economic performance of publicly accessible charging infrastructure is unknown and any deployment plan should be backed up by a rigorous cost-benefit analysis, to check the efficiency of the plan in economic terms. This paper presents the results of the economic assessment performed within the FP7 EU-funded Green eMotion project, where relevant conclusions for helping industry strategic approach and decision makers have been taken.11243418enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEconomic assessment of strategies to deploy publicly accessible charging infrastructureconference output10.3390/wevj7040659Business modelsEconomic assessmentPublic accessCharging infrastructureBusiness modelsEconomic assessmentPublic accessCharging infrastructureSDG 7 - Affordable and Clean EnergySDG 9 - Industry, Innovation, and InfrastructureProject IDinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/FP7/265499/EU/Green eMotion: Development and demonstration of a unique and user-friendly framework for green electromobility in Europe/GREEN EMOTIONinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/FP7/265499/EU/Green eMotion: Development and demonstration of a unique and user-friendly framework for green electromobility in Europe/GREEN EMOTIONFunding InfoEuropean Commission's FP7European Commission's FP7
