India has set an ambitious target: 8 lakh electric buses (e-buses) in the next 7 years to achieve its net-zero emissions goal by 2070. Achieving this ambitious target requires more than just procurement—it calls for collaboration between public and private operators, who can leverage a shared infrastructure to build a connected energy mobility ecosystem. Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) is transforming how we live, work, and move. From revolutionizing banking with Unified Payments Interface (UPI) to streamlining air travel with DigiLocker, DPI is reshaping sectors across the board. Now, it's time to apply this innovation to public transport.  In a recent conversation, Dr. Pramod Varma, the visionary behind Aadhaar and UPI, and Pawan Mulukutla, Executive Director of Integrated Transport, Clean Air and Hydrogen at WRI India, delved into the DPI’s hourglass structure and how the framework can be leveraged to transform India’s transportation sector.  DPI’s flexibility is key to scaling both public and private transport systems, empowering diverse stakeholders to collaborate and build sustainable, market-oriented solutions for large-scale e-bus deployment.  Watch the video here: https://lnkd.in/djwTeBhq

Powering the Future: Leveraging the Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme In the wake of the FAME II scheme's conclusion, the introduction of the Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme 2024 by the Ministry of Heavy Industries is a beacon of progress for the electric vehicle industry, especially for us in the electric two-wheeler sector. With a focused outlay of Rs. 500 crore, the scheme is set to catalyze the next wave of growth in electric mobility. In addition, offering a substantial subsidy of Rs. 5,000 per kWh for electric two-wheelers, capped at Rs 10,000 per vehicle, this scheme could be a game-changer for both manufacturers and consumers. By covering both commercial and private registrations, the scheme ensures a wider adoption of electric two-wheelers across various segments of society. As a leading electric two-wheeler manufacturer, we are excited to embrace this scheme, which not only supports our vision for a sustainable future but also enables us to push the boundaries of innovation and affordability in the electric vehicle space. We are hopeful that we will be able to make the most of this opportunity to enhance our product lineup and contribute to India's electric mobility success story. #EMPS2024 #ElectricTwoWheelers #CleanEnergy #Innovation #EVMobilityScheme #SokudoElectricIndia

Charging infrastructure is the backbone of the #EV ecosystem.🔌 The way ICE vehicles created fuel stations, #chargingstations will be the next big “oil distribution” equivalent industry. In FY24, India had ~12K charging stations, with this number of charging stations, the ratio of EVs to charging stations stands at 9:1. To maintain this ratio, India would need around 0.6M charging stations by FY30. However, to achieve an optimal ratio of 4 EVs per charging station, ~1.4M charging stations would need to be installed by FY30. Our latest report ‘𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐅𝐘30 – 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲’ emphasizes the critical need for expanding this infrastructure to support the growing number of EVs on the road. #Innovative solutions like #battery swapping stations and fast-charging networks are key to this expansion. 💡Check out the report now - https://lnkd.in/g5qVMnzY #ELECTRFY30 #FutureOfMobility #ElectricMobility #EV #GreenerFuture #PraxisReport Aryaman Tandon | Madhur Singhal | Sanjeev Garg Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) | Indian Venture and Alternate Capital Association (IVCA) | FICCI | NITI Aayog | ACMA India | SMEV | EMFAI
