ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN INDIA: POLICY IMPLICATION, CHALLENGES AND COST SAVINGS

India is urbanising at a very fast rate and consequently its mobility needs are growing exponentially. This prolific growth of automobiles is increasing the fuel import bill as well as severely polluting the environment. A shift to Electric Vehicles (EV) from Internal Combustion Engine vehicles (ICE) is the way out of this problem. Accordingly, the Indian EV market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 94.4% from 2021 to 2030. In this paper we have made our analysis based on aspects includes a brief policy review and a comparison cost between EV and Internal Combustion Engine vehicles. In order to promote the sale of EVs in the Indian market, the government has launched the FAME (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric vehicles) scheme in India, as part of the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) 2020, under which, the government will provide certain incentives to lower the purchasing cost of electric vehicles. The policy framework proposes both fiscal and non-fiscal measures to promote EVs in India. The EV sector in India faces infrastructural and financial challenges as well as shortages of raw materials for batteries. It is found that adoption of EVs in the 2-wheeler and 4-wheeler personalized vehicle segment can lead to substantial fuel cost, maintenance cost and CO2 emissions cost savings.

This paper provides a general overview on EVs and analysis of barriers against the use of EVs in India. There are some essential barriers such as lack of charging facilities, higher price of EVs as compared to internal combustion vehicles and poor long term planning. So when renewable sources are not available, special features of EVs are mandatory for their operation.

Adoption of Electrical Vehicles in India

International Journal for Research in Applied Science & Engineering Technology (IJRASET), 2022

Greenhouse gas emission, fast depletion of fossil fuels, the oil crisis and the increased cost of petroleum products are the major factors that need a shift from internal combustion engines to Electric Vehicles. The use of electric cars is an active action in conserving the environment. The use of these cars promotes the protection of the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions while promoting renewable energy sources that are less likely to amount to the carbon footprint. Electric cars function by plugging into a charge point and taking electricity from the grid. They store the electricity in rechargeable batteries that power an electric motor, which turns the wheels. Electric cars accelerate faster than vehicles with traditional fuel engines so they feel lighter to drive. India launched "National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) 2020" in 2013, which aims promotion of hybrid and EVs in the country to achieve national energy security. Even after this the total sales of EV's in India was only about 0.0068% of the total sales of vehicles in India. Increasing long-term gasoline price and concerns on the impact of emissions have inspired alternative technologies like electric vehicles (EVs). The automotive manufacturers are facing difficulties in understanding the needs and wants of the customer. This research aims at helping the automobile manufacturers to understand the customer better. The insights gained from this research will help policymakers around the world in crafting transportation and energy policies in the EV transportation system.
