dc.description.abstractThis research examines the complex relationship between energy security, equity, and widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), emphasizing the development of tailored indicators to assess jurisdictional progress. Drawing inspiration from California's leadership, we develop indicators that include equitable charging infrastructure distribution, affordability for diverse communities, integration of renewable energy sources, accessibility of education programs, and the impact of government fleet electrification on underserved communities. By applying these indicators to Nova Scotia, the paper aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of the province's efforts, providing insights into successes and areas for improvement. The research contributes an innovative methodology for evaluating EV policy implementation, aligned with the dual goals of enhancing energy security and promoting equity in the transition to electric mobility.en_US
