Description
Summary:The pace between city development, increasing number of working places and emissions control is a challenge nowadays in urban environment. The gradual increase of electric cars ownership is essential for reducing the emissions level in urban areas. The city policy is of high importance for encouraging the use of electric cars, especially for trip purposes to work and business. The paper deals with the effects of increasing the fleet of electric vehicles on the emissions level in urban areas. The effect of considering a certain share of electric car trips to work and business is analyzed. Considering this, the concept of “green city corridors” can be introduced and considered as a priority for the transport policy in urban areas.
