Abstract

Electric vehicles (EVs) are emerging as a promising solution for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating environmental damage caused by traditional automobiles. This study examines the barriers to EV adoption in Bangladesh by focusing on various impediments, including technological, infrastructural, financial, behavioral, and external factors. Based on a survey of 111 individuals with substantial knowledge of EVs, this study explores the challenges impeding EV deployment, providing a deeper understanding of the factors that limit their widespread adoption. This research highlights that key obstacles include battery life limitations, inadequate infrastructure, high costs, and long charging durations. By assessing and prioritizing these barriers, the study offers valuable insights for administrators and policymakers to allocate resources effectively and address the most critical issues. The findings underscore the complex, multidimensional nature of EV adoption challenges in Bangladesh and provide actionable recommendations for enhancing decision-making and developing targeted policies to promote the adoption of EVs.

Abstract

This study is investigated the nexus between temperature and GDP in Bangladesh and how GDP is affected by carbon emission, rainfall and temperature. The ARDL bound test is employed to examine the cointegration relationship among the variables and findings suggest that variables are cointegrated in both cases of dependent variable temperature and dependent variable of GDP. Results mirror that economic growth affect negatively the temperature and statistically significant for short run and long run. On the other hand, carbon emission and rainfall have statistically significant short run positive impact on GDP growth. The ECM result indicates the equilibrium converges to steady state at 78% annually when dependent variable is temperature and equilibrium also converges to steady state at 0.0891% annually, when dependent variable is GDP. Granger Causality test finds a one-way causal relationship between GDP and carbon emissions in both situation of the different dependent variables. Aftermath, results would say that carbon emission and rainfall have short run salutary impact on economic growth and the economic growth is conducive to reduce temperature in Bangladesh that moves to sustainable development. It might address underlying economic transitions such as shifts to greener industries or government interventions that promote sustainability. It will help researcher and policymakers for further study to identify environmental friendly growth projects that lead to reduce temperature in Bangladesh.
