Global Market Insights, Inc., announces a report on EV Charging Infrastructure Market Trends & Forecast - 2025.' The study encompasses an elaborate analysis of the product, application, and regional trends in the industry.According to reliable reports, the global EV charging infrastructure market is expected to surpass $46 billion over 2025.
The Electric Vehicles are the future of our country. The Government also target to switch to e-vehicles in the near future which is better alternative to fuel-based automobiles to mitigate air pollution. The Indian government aims to build a network of charging infrastructure throughout the country which is good opportunity for the start-up and also giving the incentive for generation of green energy. As the most of the auto industry has been complaining about the lack of charging support directly discouraging their interest in switching vehicles to electric. The lack of Charging Stations develop the fear that if vehicle will run out of charge and no charging station near them what they will do. So our mission is to provide E service on battery charging, battery replacement, Pickup the vehicle and unload to nearby garage, and if any excess of generation of electricity sold to DISCOM at government decided rate., which will boost the public interest in commuting between cities, enabling a smooth and sustainable transition to a future-oriented mobility solution. Our company will use the solar system to provide the charging service to the customers. Our future plans is to reach the different states and remote areas for providing charging stations which encourage the people to buy the Electric Vehicle
Overall Problem-
It has been estimated that worldwide, the total number of vehicles is most likely to triple by the year 2050, and it will be concentrated in developing regions, leading to energy and ecological calamity. Governmental agencies are now directing their focus on the development of electric vehicles to avert the impending crisis.
Current Scenario
India currently spends $102 billion on importing crude oil to cover 80 % of its transport needs, putting a strain on the Indian Economy and pointing towards a shortage of energy reserves
soon. The automobile sector has reported an increase in sales, from 21.5 million in FY19 to 26.2 million in FY20, making it lucrative for the transport giants to increase the production of EVs. The move also puts the focus on Indian infrastructure for electricity generation. India produces 374 Gigawatts of electricity, providing for 97.6 % of the households in India, and
around 90% of the rural areas, which indicates that the energy sector may soon face a shortage.
Advantages
The gains consist of environmental and economic benefits. By adopting a shared and electric model for transportation, energy consumption and carbon emissions can be reduced by 64 percent and 37 percent, respectively, by 2030.
Current Framework
Government policy advisor NITI Ayog has proposed electrification for 80 percent of two- and three-wheelers, 30 percent of four-wheelers, and 45 percent of buses by 2030. Authorities have introduced the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid) and Electric Vehicles in India (FAME) - II; a scheme that incentivizes the purchase of EVs. It has also been proposed that the Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate on EVs should be reduced from a rate of 12 percent to 5 percent.
The scheme of Battery-swapping has been introduced wherein users pay only when they swap a used battery with a charged one instantly. The market for EV battery-swapping is likely to increase up to $6.1 million by the year 2030
Challenges-
1. Estimate the growth of the 4-wheeler EV segment over 5 years (till FY25). Calculate the projections for all the years.
2. What will be the main challenges of the EV segment to grow in the given scenario of COVID-19?
3. Suppose you are the Indian head of Tata Motors. Propose a detailed plan to increase the penetration of the 4-wheeler private EV in Agra. (Consider COVID-19)
4. Estimate the cost of providing charging spaces in a popular marketplace like Connaught Place in Delhi.
5. Come up with strategies to implement the practice of battery swapping feasibly to the consumers.
How an Electric Vehicle can be a potential threat to CNG. What is Govt Initiative that is a boon to the electric vehicle industry are discussed & how various stakeholders are showing their interest in EV.
Electric vehicles and electric utilities – a clear opportunity with many shapesCarlo Stella
While several stakeholders are supportive of the widespread adoption of electric vehicles, we have looked specifically at electric utilities to understand the opportunities that such a change in the transportation landscape can generate, and define the key questions to be addressed in order to embrace them. We have identified four business models – by no means evolutionary – that can be looked at independently, and eventually combined to fit the company’s strategy and the specific market conditions (e.g., regulation, competition, ecosystem, customer readiness). We strongly believe electric utilities are ideally positioned to leverage the opportunities offered by the adoption of electric vehicles on a mass-market scale, but they need to act fast, as many other players are addressing the same opportunity
Background
India, the largest market for two-wheelers and the fifth-biggest market for passenger vehicles (cars, vans, and utility vehicles), has a negligible presence of electric vehicles at this point. The government has expressed intent to push manufactures to get into mass manufacturing of electric vehicles to meet its 2030 target in its bid to reduce dependence on imported fuel and control environmental pollution.
India launched its National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020 (NEMMP) in 2013 to ease dependence on foreign oil imports. The National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020, notified by the Department of Heavy Industry, Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, Government of India seeks to enhance national energy security, mitigate adverse environmental impacts from road transport vehicles and boost domestic manufacturing capabilities for Electric Vehicles (EVs). It is envisaged that EVs are expected to play a significant role in India’s transition to a low-carbon eco-system.
Government of India has formulated a scheme, titled Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles in India, under the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020, to encourage the progressive induction of reliable, affordable and efficient electric and hybrid vehicles. The scheme is proposed to be implemented till 2020, wherein it is intended to support the hybrid/EVs market development and its manufacturing eco-system to achieve self-sustenance.
About EV
Electric vehicle (EV) is a mode of transport system that utilizes electricity to power their motors, instead of using conventional vehicle fuels. There are two basic types of EVs: all-electric vehicles (AEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs).

Why Electrification of Transport will not save us - India’s EV obsession and ...Asmi976965
The paper explores India's pursuit of electric vehicle (EV) adoption as a solution to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector, within the broader context of global climate change. It outlines India's EV policies since 2019 and emphasizes the significant government support provided through initiatives like the National Mission on Transformative Mobility and Battery Storage and the FAME scheme. Despite ambitious targets, the paper highlights challenges such as insufficient infrastructure, import dependency, and concerns about the sustainability of EVs due to raw material scarcity.
It discusses the potential of the EV industry to create jobs and attract investments while also addressing critiques regarding the effectiveness of electrification in reducing emissions. Concerns about the rebound effect, wherein increased energy efficiency leads to higher energy consumption, are raised, alongside the argument that GDP growth may hinder efforts to decarbonize transportation effectively.
Ultimately, the paper suggests that a shift towards degrowth, challenging the obsession with GDP growth, may be necessary to achieve significant emissions reductions. It proposes policy changes to encourage behavioral shifts towards low-carbon transport modes, promote sufficiency over efficiency, and prioritize public enterprise in infrastructure development.

Project One: Executive SummaryProblem
With the restricted economic activity expected because of the COVID-19 outbreak, and the rise in inflation the revenue for the automobile engine and parts manufacturing industry has been adjusted to decline by 10.9% by the end of 2022 (Pantalon, 2022). Based on the current challenges the automotive industry faces, we must diversify our engine manufacturing and its operations to expand our revenue. In this presentation, I will be using qualitative and quantitative data to explain why I think our company should rapidly explore the ever-evolving and growing popularity of the electric car industry and develop electric motors. I will show the qualitative data which will focus on the industry reports of engine manufacturing inside the automotive industry. The quantitative data that I will provide will estimate the projections for future operations and provide fact-checked historical data on the automotive industry. Automotive Manufacturing Industry
After conducting extensive research into the current automotive industry status, where I focused on the performance and expectations for the industry's future, the 2021 measured revenue of the US car and automobile manufacturing was $75 billion. This is compared to previous years, such as 2020 $69 billion, and in 2019 and 2018 $92 billion (MarketLine 2021). Although we saw a rise from 2020 to 2021 in revenue the automobile manufacturing industry revenue will continue to not keep pace with previous years. As the domestic demand for new vehicles trends higher, three automotive hubs are expected to gain greater traction over the next few years. With that said the US automotive industry is heavily established in the Great Lakes region. This region represents just over 36% of the automobile manufacturers in the US. Some of the most successful automobile making are located here which include the Ford Motor Company, General Motors, and Fiat Chrysler. All these manufacturers are in Michigan which makes up 15% of all automobile manufacturing revenue in the US. With that said there are 2 more regions where automobile manufacturers operate that make up 50% of all us manufacturers' locations. The Regions are the West Region, making up 25.4% of the industry locations, and the Southeast Region, making up 24.6% of the industry locations. After conducting research, the consumer's current mindset is shifting towards a “greener” option for the automobile. This option would have a smaller carbon footprint, providing an increase in producing vehicles that are more environmentally friendly. As a result of this new stance on a “greener” option by the consumer the hybrid and the electric car are gaining popularity and are expected to multiply over the next five years (MarketLine 2018). “In 2025 the North American hybri.
Strategy for Adoption of Two-Wheeler Electric Vehicles in Urban Markets of IndiaRajesh Gusain
This paper attempts to evaluate the adoption strategy in the short to medium term to drive demand for the electric vehicle in urban transportation markets in India.
This technical and macro-economic study focuses on light duty vehicles -- cars and vans. It has been advised by a broad group of stakeholders in the move to low-carbon transport, including auto producers, technology suppliers, labour groups, energy providers and environmental groups. The resulting fact-base is anticipated to serve as a reference point for discussions around the low-carbon transition.
The model results show that a shift to low-carbon cars and vans increases spending on vehicle technology, a sector in which Europe excels, therefore generating positive direct employment impacts. This shift will also reduce the total cost of running Europe’s auto fleet, leading to mildly positive economic impacts including indirect employment gains.
The analysis showed that a shift to low-carbon vehicles would increase spending on vehicle technology, therefore generating positive direct employment impacts, but potentially adding €1,000-€1,100 to the capital cost of the average new car in 2020. However, these additional technology costs would be offset by fuel savings of around €400 per year, indicating an effective break-even point for drivers of approximately three
years. At the EU level, the cost of running and maintaining the European car fleet would become €33-35 billion lower each year than in a “do nothing scenario” by 2030, leading to positive economic impacts including indirect employment gains.
MEMORANDUM TO Oregon Assembly for Trucking ElectrificatiAbramMartino96
MEMORANDUM
TO: Oregon Assembly for Trucking Electrification
FROM:
DATE: June 11th, 2019
SUBJECT: Electrifying Heavy-Duty Trucking in Oregon
SUMMARY: This memo describes the current state of heavy-duty diesel trucking in Oregon
and the need to steer towards electrification, with a focus on businesses that are vulnerable to
policy changes. Recommendations are made to a future potential assembly of decision-makers
and stakeholders in the realm of Oregon trucking. These recommendation include advocating for
House Bill 2020 to reduce vehicle registration and taxes for MWESB trucking businesses,
establishing a loan guarantee program to accelerate the deployment of electric trucking
infrastructure, and creating a cash voucher program to lower the initial purchase price electric
trucks for business owners. Pursuing these recommendations now will allow Oregon to move
towards a cleaner, healthier future.
PROBLEM: Diesel emissions from heavy-duty trucks are significantly impacting the health of
Oregonians and contributing to climate change.
Did you know that diesel exhaust causes more fatalities than do traffic crashes in Oregon each
year (OEC, 2019)?
Diesel exhaust costs Oregon billions of dollars each year, with increases in health care costs, lost
lives, and missed work and school. Oregon is burdened with up to $3.5 billion a year in health
costs and lost productivity because of diesel pollution (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Diesel Pollution Health Impacts (Coleman, 2019)
Currently, 23 of 36 counties exceed the state benchmark for diesel pollution (OEC, 2019). This is
a huge burden, and the impacts are felt disproportionately in vulnerable (children, elderly, low
income, minority) populations (ODEQ, 2018).
In addition to the health impacts, diesel engines from heavy-duty trucks emit carbon dioxide,
which contributes significantly to climate change. In addition, 70% of diesel particles are black
carbon, which has immediate local climate effects. Black carbon can alter precipitation, cause
faster snow and ice melt, and contribute to warmer temperatures.
Heavy-duty trucks make up the largest portion of diesel engines in Oregon. 73% of these trucks
are older than 2010 models, which is before federal standards for much cleaner engines were
established (OEC, 2016). Federal and state laws and regulations aim to reduce diesel pollution;
however, these regulations are often established at a long time frame to give trucking companies
enough time to phase out their fleet (OEC, 2019). Another issue is even when trucks begin to get
phased out and replaced, the trucks that would provide the greatest reductions in emissions
(electric trucks) are not the ones being purchased due to multiple barriers (UPS, 2018).
The critical issue here is that even with potential overall long term savings in fuel, and the
overall public health and climate change mitigation benefits, trucking companies are
hesitant to switch to el ...
CO2 emissions of vehicles: a broad and persistent problemLeonardo ENERGY
The transport sector has not seen the same decline in greenhouse gas emissions as many other sectors. CO2 emissions from passenger cars and trucks form a persistent problem and policymakers struggle to find effective solutions to meet the goals.
First, there is this ongoing race to the bottom among declared CO2 values with a growing gap with the emissions in real-world use. Second, manufacturers are only responsible for the performance of their cars under idealized circumstances, as measured during vehicle emission tests. Third, the economic and life-style aspects of owning and driving heavy and expensive cars are forces in the opposite direction. And last, the European Union has only limited systems in place for the monitoring and verification of the CO2 emissions of vehicles.
In this presentation, Norbert Ligterink (PhD), senior research scientist at TNO, guides you to understanding the complexity behind this broad and persistent problem.
Innovation needs for the integration of electric vehicles into the energy systemDrStefanWolf
The mitigation of climate change and the substitution of fossil energy sources is one of the greatest tasks of
our time. Electric mobility is the most promising solution to decarbonize the transport sector. As the market
for electric vehicles is quickly gaining momentum, an urgent need for intelligent integration of the
energy and mobility system arises. This integration leads to a multitude of technical, economic and social
challenges. Thus, this paper aims to identify the need for future research, development, standardization and
regulation to provide recommendations for action.

Two-Wheelers Electric vehicles Outlook in India | Report RedSeer
It is unsurprising that the world is slowly but steadily encouraging a green planet amid heightened concern over climate change and pollution. Working along the same lines, governments all over the world are pushing the EV industry through subsidies and regulations. Further, consumers demand low-emission commuting instead of fossil fuel-driven vehicles, which endangers our planet.
India offers the world’s largest untapped EV market, especially in the two-wheeler segment. With several automakers rolling out EV vehicles at a rapid pace, the penetration of these vehicles has increased significantly in the past few years. As per a recent study, electric vehicles (EVs) market is expected to be worth around at least ₹475 billion by 2025. The penetration of electric two-wheelers is projected to reach up to 15% by 2025 from 1% currently.
As business activities gain pace and the Indian economy rebounds its way in 2022, the auto industry is set to enter a new phase of growth, innovation and investment. However, the road to the future of EV is battling various challenges. While the government is aggressively promoting EV adoption in India, the inadequate infrastructure, lack of high performing EVs and high upfront cost is causing a major hindrance for its mass adoption.
Capital cost has always been a major factor in th
Capital cost has always been a major factor in the EV purchase decision, with 63% of consumers believing that an EV is beyond their budget. The lack of adequate charging infrastructure in our country is a huge barrier to increased EV penetration. Compared to traditional petrol stations, charging stations are harder to find, normally limited by investment costs and difficult infrastructure development enabling people to charge where they usually park, at home or at work, which presents its own challenges, such as dealing with multi-tenant buildings, grid-connection management, and charging slot availability. It is anticipated that there will be a shortage of nickel, and scaling up lithium production would be a challenge, leading to supply shortage that may cause manufacturers to use lower-quality mineral inputs, adversely affecting battery performance.

The transportation sector contributes with 14% to the total global CO2
emissions. It encompasses road, rail, air and marine transportation.fuels,
largely gasoline and diesel.
The road emissions make roughly 50% of the transport sector,
resulting in 7% of the global CO2 emissions. Although this is a relatively low
number there is a lot of focus to restrict emissions of this sector.
5. Key Points of the Paris Agreement :
The historic Paris Agreement of 12 December 2015 at COP21 is the first international
agreement committing 195 Parties, developing and industrial countries alike, to combat
climate change and to kick-start action and investment towards the goal of limiting global
temperature increase to “well below 2°C” .
The climate objectives and measures contained in the countries’ climate action plans, or
(intended) nationally determined contributions, (I)NDCs, are voluntary in nature, but a
number of legal requirements are contained in the new climate deal:
Signatories will have to enhance ambition every five years starting in 2020, with updated
plans that tighten their emission cuts
Starting in 2023, signatories shall take stock every five years to publicly report on their
progress in curbing emissions compared to their plans. This means that they are legally
required to monitor and report on their emission levels and reductions, using a universal
accounting system.
6. . An international review process will provide suggestions to each country for raising
ambition. 2023 will mark the year for the first global stocktake to assess the
collective achievements towards the 2°C goal, with subsequent stocktaking every
five years .
7. INDIA AND PARIS AGREEMENT:
Under the Paris Agreement, India has made following commitments.
India’s greenhouse gas emission intensity of its GDP will be reduced by 33-35% below
2005 levels by 2030.
40% of India’s power capacity would be based on non-fossil fuel sources.
At the same time, India will create an additional ‘carbon sink’ of 2.5 to 3 billion tonnes of
Co2 equivalent through additional forest and tree cover by 2030.
On transport, the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles in India
scheme came into effect in April 2019, and provides incentives to purchase electric
vehicles, while also including provisions to ensure adequate charging infrastructure.
India’s charging infrastructure has been a point of contention, with many civil servants
expressing concern at the lack of charging stations when the government announced
that 500,000 civil service cars would be electric.
8. India ranks 177 out of 180 in Environmental
Performance Index in 2018
Environmental Performance Index (EPI)
The biennial report, brought out by
the Yale and Columbia
Universities in collaboration with
the WEF, noted that the low
ranking of the emerging economic
like India and China (120th)
reflects the strain population
pressure and economic growth
impose on environment.
9. How EVs will disrupt the automotive
ecosystem?
• Electric cars are disrupting the heart and soul of the automotive. Batteries and drive units will now occupy
the space of IC engines and associated accessories. On the one hand, it is going to disrupt some industry
suppliers significantly, forcing them to redefine their entire product portfolio to be relevant in the changing
landscape. On the other hand, it is going to be an internal challenge for the OEMs as some of their most
important teams will lose their position of influence to the electric divisions
• The automotive business model is expected to transform with the emergence of the electric vehicle.
Profitability from service operations is expected to come down as electric vehicles will require less
maintenance
10. Automakers
Automobile manufacturers are making huge investments in electric car
divisions as they realize that electric vehicles are disrupting the industry
Significant internal changes will take place as teams fight for their share
of budgets in R&D activities and existing powertrain heavyweights will
refuse to step aside gracefully to electric divisions
Many new supply chain partnerships need to be created.
The focus will move to new technologies as the automobile becomes a
true computer on wheels
11. Dealers & suppliers
Dealers will have to unlearn and learn to sell both electric
vehicles and conventional vehicles
Dealers should equip their personnel with a diversified skillset
to sell electric vehicles
Suppliers will be significantly affected as automobile
manufacturers switch to the electric powertrain.
Only a few suppliers who take appropriate initiatives will
survive and succeed, such as Bosch that has a separate
division to focus on batteries
12. End Customers
Incentives and subsidies will turn the tide in favor of electric vehicles.
The rapidly growing charging stations network combined with
supercharging facilities will make adoption of electric vehicles easier
for the end customer.
Superior driving experience with packed innovative features will
make it difficult for customers to resist the experience of owning an
electric vehicle. Once they drive an electric vehicle, they will find it
difficult to go back.
13. Government regulations
Governments will take the Electric Vehicles Initiative (EVI) seriously
as adoption of electric vehicles can reduce the carbon footprint.
Governments will play a key role in resolving subsidy-related issues
to promote and make electric vehicles affordable.
Governments will have to consider providing special privileges such
as removal of tolls on expressways and providing priority parking
spots to encourage adoption of electric vehicles

15. ISSUES:
In order to achieve a considerable penetration of electric vehicles there remain
several major issues to be tackled and solved. Those are:
Range of electric vehicles (EV’s) must grow into the order of today’s
combustion engines, i.e. up to 1,000 km of real range to deliver customer
acceptable ranges.
Charging infrastructure (“gas stations for EV’s”) must grow into the same order
of magnitude as today’s fuel gas stations.
Cost of the battery and fuel cell systems must come down drastically, so that
the overall cost and therefore price to pay comes close to today’s combustion
engine vehicles.
Hydrogen needs to be produced using ecology friendly production techniques.
Less CO2 and less energy consuming.
16. Impact of BS-4 and BS-6 in Indian
Automotive Industry
India has the most polluted cities in
the world. 30 Indian cities figure in
the Top 100 Most Polluted Global
Cities (in terms of particulate
matter PM10) as per data
published by World Health
Organization .
Air pollution is the fifth leading
cause of death in India.
17. For instance in the capital city of Delhi, vehicles contribute 59%, 50% and 18%
of the overall emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrous oxides
respectively.
Bharat Stage emission norms (equivalent to Euro norms for four-wheeled
vehicles) were first introduced in 2000. These norms specify the maximum
permissible emission limit for carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC),
nitrous oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM).
18.
19. Transitioning to BS-VI norms will require significant engine technology
changes including improvements in engine combustion and calibration,
increased injection and cylinder pressures, NOx and PM after-treatment
solutions and transitioning to electronic controls.
New emission norms will also have to be met in all conditions and not just the
ideal testing conditions. Two engine fitments will be typically required for up-
gradation of passenger cars to BS-VI norms from BS-IV norms.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)- For reduction of PM in diesel vehicles
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Module - For reduction in NOx
emissions
Due to this technology upgrade, price of petrol cars are expected to go up by
Rs 20,000- 30,000 while diesel passenger vehicles’ prices may go up
substantially by Rs 75,000-1,00,000.
20. It is estimated that auto & auto parts industry in India will have to invest over
USD 10 billion to be able to manufacture BS-VI compliant cars.
Testing, optimisation and fitment of DPF and SCR technology to Indian
conditions will take a few years. It is not possible to simply plug and play with
the European technology (compliant with Euro 6 norms) here in India.
For example, fitting of DPF into bonnets of small Indian diesel cars will
require major design and engineering work. Making bonnets longer may lead
to the car exceeding the 4 metre mark, hence losing excise benefits.
Due to low driving speeds in India, it is difficult to achieve temperature (for
burning the soot in DPF) of 600 degree Celsius prevalent in European
conditions and the Indian manufacturers will have to make do with
temperatures around 400 degree Celsius.
