As global cities rapidly expand EVs charging networks to promote decarbonization, an often-overlooked trade-off is emerging: during the transitional stage before universal adoption, the mandatory “green-exclusive” occupation of limited public parking spaces may engender spatial exclusion among non-EVs users. While we support decarbonisation and the reduction of automobile dependence, its concern lies in implementing electrification infrastructure in a fair manner avoiding “green gentrification” reproduction in the transformation process.
