Solution to the Chicken-Egg Dilemma of Electric Mobility for Indian Cities: A Roadmap to Clean Energy
Abstrak
Since the electrical vehicles (EVs) are infrastructure-dependent technology, their penetration faces the problem of lacking recharging infrastructure. Thus, there is a dilemma of chicken-egg in the penetration of EVs and their charging infrastructure for the decision-makers. The article examines the e-mobility scenario of 3 Indian cities to understand issues and challenges in implementing EVs. The study suggests a co-diffusion strategy for the EVs and charging infrastructure. Firstly, the priority EV segment has been decided based on the transport mode preference. Then, suitability of charging facilities according to the segment of the EVs has been presented by analyzing the turnover rate and time spent at several places. The study recommends policies on the upfront cost of EVs, charging infrastructure, awareness generation and others, while leveraging the existing government schemes like Atmanirbhar Bharat and FAME-II.
