摘要

Electric Road Systems (ERS) are defined as a set of subsystems that enable power transfer from the road to a vehicle in motion and have the potential to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, mitigate air pollutants, and minimize noise pollution in urban areas. Therefore, to maximize the social benefit and reduce the opportunity cost, specific methods must be designed to conduct an evaluation from a socio-economic perspective, contribute to the efficient allocation of public resources, analyze sustainability in the transport sector and offer reliable information based on profitability indicators to decision makers in selecting the implementation of ERS. The objective of this paper is to propose a methodology that may be useful for government institutions, entities, and agencies to evaluate the socio-economic feasibility of ERS to ensure an efficient allocation of public resources and move towards the decarbonization of the transport sector in a long-term horizon.
