EV introduc0on in Latvia Ø Electric vehicles in Latvia introduced rela0vely late Ø E-‐mobility mostly developed by private and NGO sectors
Ø First charging sta0on installed in Riga in 2010 by local charging sta0on manufacturer (ELTUS).
Ø Several NGOs are ac0ve in this field such as Zero Emission Mobility Support
Society, Green energy technology cluster (Kurzeme Business Incubator) represen0ng – 60 companies.
Ø Pilot projects in municipali0es (Riga, Liepaja) and state owned companies (Latvenergo, Rigas Sa0ksme)

E-‐mobility development mo0va0on
Poli0cal
• + Reduce energy dependence
• + EU policies regarding CO2 emission reduc0on
• -‐ Budgetary restric0ons
Economical
• + high gas prices for local purchase power
• -‐ No incen0ves from government
Geographical
• + small distances. Makes it suitable for implemen0ng current e-‐mobility technology
• -‐ Cold climate
Environmental
• + Reduce pollu0on – CO2 emissions. “Green” electricity mix.
