Research Scope

The study aims to analyze and understand environmental credits offered by various governments to automakers for following emission regulations. The study discusses regulations by regions and their impact on different automakers.  

Key Features

• To capture the key emission regulations
• To compare credit systems by country/region
• To identify the advantages and disadvantages of credits and their market impact
• To analyze Tesla and its credit rating
• To provide the key trends within ICE technology development

Research Highlights

The study gives an overview of the global emission credit norms and credit policies in the United States, China, and Europe. The basic structure of the credit system in these countries/regions is analyzed, and its impact is outlined. GHG credit policies and their measurement systems are outlined by country/region. Allocation of ZEV credits and ZEV targets is defined, in addition to a comparison of policy highlights. A comparative analysis of ZEV policies in these countries is performed, based on policy parameters involving trading mechanisms and eco-innovation/off-cycle technologies.

The study analyzes credit compliance for the United States, Europe, and China, on the basis of the country's investment in various technologies. It also measures and analyzes current compliance status, future compliance status, and strategies of Major OEMs, highlights key transactions of emission credits, and identifies key credit purchasers and sellers. The study also offers an analysis of the short- and long-term impact of ZEV and GHG credits on sales of traditional and pure-play EVs. From an automotive and transportation standpoint, the study establishes the effect of the credit system on the market and on OEM performance.

Key Issues Addressed
