More concretely, this paper emphasizes on a computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling approach to evaluate the following issues: economic impacts of subsidies for promotion of an EVS, the possibility of prices reduction, industrial structure change towards an EVS,\u00a0 and model shift occurs towards an EVS.<strong> <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Our simulation <\/em><em>results demonstrate that after applying 20% subsidies to five industries, such as electric vehicles (EVs) manufacturing and transhipment, solar, cogeneration, and other transhipment the total industrial output and city GDP increase. A large growth rate is found in industries where subsidies are introduced alone with non-ferrous metal industry. However, it is motivating that decreasing proportions are found in oil, coal product, mining, heat supply and gasoline vehicles (GVs) transhipment industries. <strong> <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Moreover, all the commodity prices decrease though in industries where subsidies are presented prices shrink appreciably. Hence, Toyohashi City\u2019s economy shows a direction where the demand for conventional vehicles and energy use are decreased, conversely, the demand for EVs and renewable energy are increased that displays different lifestyles from the current. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Thus, introducing 20% subsidies to EVs manufacturing and transhipment, solar, cogeneration, and other transhipment can really represent a realistic alternative society to EVS, both in terms of economic development and carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2<\/sub>) emissions reduction.\u00a0 In this study therefore it is clear that model shift occurs to EVS, and thus we suggest for promotion of new industrial structure to introduce an EVS in Toyohashi city, Japan. The proposed model even can be expanded to the other cities in Japan and other countries in the world which are similar to this area.<\/em><em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"..\/ARTICLES\/Special_2012\/85-100.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read more<\/a><br \/>\n<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yuzuru MIYATA Graduate School of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Toyohashi University of Technology miyata@ace.tut.ac.jp Hiroyuki SHIBUSAWA Graduate School of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Toyohashi University of Technology hiro-shibu@tut.jp Shamsunnahar KHANAM Graduate School of Environmental and Life Sciences, Toyohashi University of Technology shamsunnahar_khanam@yahoo.com Abstract: In this paper we explore economic impact of promotion and realization of&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1755","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-published"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1755","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1755"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1755\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3749,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1755\/revisions\/3749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1755"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1755"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1755"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
