Recommendation
In order to achieve its 2030 and 2035 targets, the Government must introduce a ZEV mandate to incentivise manufacturers to sell an increasing proportion of ZEVs or to purchase tradeable credits year-on-year, reaching some 100% ZEV sales by 2030.
Government Response Summary
The government partially accepts, agreeing a new regulatory framework is required and has published a Green Paper outlining a Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate as its preferred option. This indicates a commitment towards introducing the mandate but is not yet a full introduction with 100% ZEV sales by 2030.
