This initiative is crucial for achieving Viet Nam's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement and the 2050 net zero target. The report provides policy recommendations to transition the road transportation sector to electric mobility (E-Mobility) with goals of having 50 percent of urban vehicles and all urban buses and taxis powered by electricity or green energy by 2030, and 100 percent of all road vehicles by 2050. The recommendations are based on quantitative analysis covering EV demand and supply, power sector upgrades, charging network development, and battery demands, highlighting benefits such as reduced gasoline and diesel demand, job creation, lower local air pollution, and significant contributions to emission reduction targets en-USCC BY-NC 3.0 IGOSUSTAINABLE CITIES AND COMMUNITIESCLIMATE ACTIONMULTIPHASE PROGRAMMATIC APPROACHELECTRIC MOBILITYEMISSIONS REDUCTIONReportWorld Bank10.1596/42494https://doi.org/10.1596/42494
