TRENDS IN VEHICLE ELECTRIFICATION
DOI: 10.33868/0365-8392-2024-3-280-50-56
Abstract. The market of electric vehicles in Ukraine and the world has been studied. Global electric vehicle sales are found to reach a record 3 million in 2022 and continue to increase. The main sales leaders are automobile companies: Nissan, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen Group, BYD. It is a joint effort between several industries: automobiles, utilities, gov-ernment and private property owners such as shopping centers and apartment complexes. When these paths align, vehi-cle electrification trends will grow exponentially. About 40 thousand electric vehicles are registered in Ukraine. The mar-ket is growing every year, reflecting the changing infrastructure for electric vehicles. This indicates significant changes in green transport and is expected to have far-reaching implications for transport and environmental policy in Ukraine. The popularity of used electric vehicles also suggests that cost may be a significant factor in driver choice, which could influ-ence future market trends and government incentives for electric vehicle adoption. The main companies providing ser-vices in the charging network for electric vehicles are Auto Enterprise, Toka, DTEK. The main factors influencing the ef-fective operation of electric vehicles, namely the development of infrastructure, are analyzed: a) modern equipment for charging stations corresponding to the appropriate level; b) provision of additional charging station services for electric vehicles (for example, individual lanes for parking and refueling and c) software for drivers, cost discounts for the use of electricity in accordance with system load levels, etc. Leading car factories are expected to account for more than 70% of global electric vehicle production by 2030, meaning one in four new passenger cars sold will be an electric vehicle. This is the beginning of the era of zero-emission alternative fuel vehicles.
Keywords: electric vehicle, infrastructure, charging network for electric vehicles, operation, factor.
