Developing an Electric Mobility Roadmap for Vietnam: Global Experiences From National Case Studies

This research paper outlines a four-phase framework for developing a national electric mobility roadmap—planning and preparation, visioning, development, and implementation—to assist Vietnam in decarbonizing its transportation sector based on global case studies.

• A successful e-mobility roadmap requires a structured four-phase approach: planning and preparation, visioning, development, and implementation, monitoring, and revision. This process involves selecting a lead government ministry, forming a steering committee, and engaging external stakeholders and the public through accessible information, as demonstrated by India's one-stop shop website.
• Governments should prioritize the most predominant vehicle types for electrification to decarbonize efficiently, such as transit buses in China. Additionally, hybrid electric vehicles can serve as a transitional technology; Malaysia is specifically noted for positioning plug-in hybrid vehicles as a technological steppingstone.
• Driving e-mobility adoption requires both supply and demand incentives. Demand-side incentives include monetary purchase subsidies and non-monetary infrastructure deployment, such as Singapore's focus on installing charging points in multi-dwelling buildings. On the supply side, engaging battery manufacturers is critical; India is investing US$2.5 billion to increase battery manufacturing capacity.
• Effective roadmaps must include ambitious, evidence-based targets and regular monitoring to adapt to socioeconomic conditions. Thailand's National EV Roadmap is highlighted for its comprehensive targets regarding EV stock, manufacture, and charging station density, while India's FAME scheme (phases I and II) illustrates the importance of monitoring for revising objectives.
