Norway's commitment to electric vehicles can be traced back decades, beginning with attempts to develop domestic EVs in the 1990s, which laid the groundwork for public acceptance.
As of last year, nearly nine out of ten cars sold in Norway were electric, demonstrating the effectiveness of strong government policies and incentives for EV adoption.
Robbie Andrew, a senior scientist at CICERO, emphasized that the absence of a powerful domestic auto industry lobby allowed Norway to pursue ambitious EV initiatives successfully.
Norway aims for all passenger cars sold to be zero-emission vehicles by 2023, a decade ahead of the EU, showcasing its leading role in climate action.
