The transport sector accounted for 37% of global CO2 emissions from end-use sectors in 2021. For the transport- and road freight sector to contribute to emissions reduction targets while still meeting the foreseen increase in transport demands, decarbonization will play a key role. This study focus on battery-electric heavy-duty trucks and the objective is to provide an overview of policy instruments, planned or implemented, that support the introduction of such trucks in Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, UK and California (US). This study also aims to identify policy design that could be interesting to further investigate in a Swedish context.Although the number of trucks is still very low, all countries have implemented various policy instruments to support an increasing electrification of the freight sector. In general, all countries seem to have a similar approach when implementing such policy instruments although there are also interesting differences that could be used for inspiration when designing new policies. The most common economic policy instrument is investment subsidies for vehicles as well as infrastructure. It can be noted that the size of the subsidy varies between different countries which could reflect different market conditions or different ambition from policy makers. Either way, since market conditions change rapidly, not least due to a technical development, it is important that policy makers have access to updated TCO calculations to make sure that investment subsidies are on the required level. In addition to the size of the subsidy, there are also some differences in the practical implementation. In the EU, it is required that the buyer of the truck apply for a subsidy in competition with others. California and the UK on the other hand use a voucher system that does not require an application from the truck buyer. In addition to investment subsidies for vehicles, most countries have also implemented subsidies for charging infrastructure. In this matter, Sweden stands out with ...
