Abstract

This paper uses patenting activity to shed light on worldwide innovation trends in the electric vehicle industry. Using the patent publication collection of the European Patent Office (EPO), the authors present an analysis of worldwide patenting activity covering technologies in and around electric vehicles. They confirm that Europe is an important market for electric vehicle technologies and present options for gaining high-quality patent protection in the region.
