Abstract:

The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) has developed the Digital Library on Green Mobility (DLGM) under the India component of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC)-Transport Initiative for Asia (TIA) programme which is a regional initiative funded by International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU).

Speaking at the launch of DLGM, Dr. Ajay Mathur, D-G, TERI said, “Electric vehicles (EVs) are by far the most practical vehicle technology intervention to address rising air pollution in Indian cities. The lack of cohesion between the key actors is limiting the faster adoption of EVs. With rising renewables in India’s power mix, the impact of EVs will soon be the best pathway for addressing India’s transport NDCs.”
