This paper aims to compare Indonesian government regulation with the regulation of other countries in the world on the use of electric vehicles for ground support activities in the aviation industry. As ground handling companies have to invest billions of rupiah, it is important to explore and understand the best practice of electrical vehicle usage among other ground handlers all over the world. This study adopted the qualitative and quantitave methods by interviewing the airport stakeholders, specifically the ground handlers, airlines, and airports experts. Based on the majority opinions of interview respondents, it was proposed that the usage of the electric vehicles in airports helps in reduction of carbon dioxide emission, and makes testing grounds available for mass production in Indonesia. Therefore, because stakeholders support the use of these vehicles, the government must implement their use through the appropriate ministries related to air and ground transportation.
