On behalf of the Committee of the European Community an economicevaluation of the use of electric vehicles for several Europeancountries, called COST 302, has been carried out in 1985. TheNetherlands did not participate in this study. The environmental andeconomic impacts of the large scale introduction of electric vehicles,according to the COST 302 methodology, are presented for theNetherlands. For three types of vehicles (passenger cars, light vansand vans) the emission reduction due to replacement by electric carshas been calculated. The environmental benefits, in terms of money, arealso quantified. The results are comparable with the results for theother European countries, described in COST 302. In the second placethe financial advantages or disadvantages for seven types of availableelectric vehicles, from a macro-economic as well as from amicro-economic point of view, are calculated. It appears that smallelectric passenger cars could be cheaper than their counterparts withinternal combustion engines. Finally the environmental impact of someintroduction scenarios for passenger cars and vans in Amsterdam,Rotterdam and Utrecht are calculated. A maximum emission reduction ofabout 25% can be achieved in the inner-cities.
