Electric and Autonomous Vehicles, Housing Location Choice and the Potential Impacts on Travel Demand

Narges Ahmadnia and Dr. Gregory Rowangould, UVM Transportation Research CenterJost Room

Come learn about an important study...Adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous vehicles (AVs) holds potential for reducing travel demand and greenhouse gas emissions. EVs eliminate tailpipe greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and AVs can reduce congestion by enabling more efficient traffic flow and shared ride services. However, these technologies also have the potential to affect travel behavior and demand by reducing travel costs and influencing where people choose to live
