Presentation: From Gas Tanks to Gigawatts: The Economics of Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles are rapidly transforming the global automobile industry, but the story is not just about new cars—it is also about economics. The EV transition is being shaped by technological innovation in batteries, network effects for charging stations, the structure of electricity markets, and growing tensions in global trade policy. This talk explores the economic forces driving the rise of EVs and the policy choices that will shape how quickly the transition unfolds. Electric vehicles provide a vivid case study of how markets, technology, and public policy interact.
