摘要：

This paper studies the effect of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) on urban air pollution in China. The number of government purchase subsidies for BEVs is used as an instrumental variable. The empirical results suggest that a ten percent increase in the cumulative number of registered BEVs on average can decrease urban air pollution by one percent. However, BEVs are also found to redistribute air pollution, as more registered BEVs can cause more pollution in areas where coal power plants are located. This paper’s findings provide references for policies on the electric vehicle industry and urban air pollution.
