The paper, “Market Development for Green Cars”, presents and analyses policies, programs and approaches for the development, market introduction and diffusion of green cars (primarily from the demand (pull) side). High entry costs may exist for new technologies, and therefore lead to high cost of switching to these new technologies for users.
