Accelerating Technological Change
The emergence of a large variety of radically new vehicle technologies that depend on a physical infrastructure may hamper the diffusion of any one of those radically new vehicle technologies. Diffusion also is hampered by incremental improvements in the environmental performance of the existing vehicle technology.
The transition towards a more sustainable transport system requires technological change. How can we accelerate this process? How should we allocate our financial resources, such as research and development budgets? Which policy instruments are effective? This thesis provides insights into the mechanisms of technological change by capturing the complexity that characterises the transport system into simulation models.
