Abstract:

India wants to be a global leader in the manufacturing and adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). The country sees the energy transition in mobility as an important part of its emissions reduction, energy security and industrial strategies. Building on the previous work of the REmobility coalition, WBCSD has developed this report to help accelerate India's transition to electric mobility and enhance the collaboration between policymakers and businesses. It presents a policy framework that reinforces the adoption of EVs across commercial fleets and increased investments in charging infrastructure. Developed in partnership with more than 30 businesses from India's EV value chain, the report outlines eight guiding pathways for policymakers and 18 actionable policy recommendations.
