Feasibility Study of Electric Vehiclesin Indian Cities
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 12
Abstract
Pollution has been an area of concern in almost all major metropolitan cities. The increasing usage of motor vehicles and the emissions from these has been one of the prime reasons for deterioration in air quality in these cities. The local authorities have therefore been trying to encourage people to reduce the usage of personal vehicles and increase the usage of public transport. The city buses in this context play an important role as they are the lifeline of the public transport system of the city. However, these buses are diesel buses that consume more than 50 liters of diesel per day and emit toxic gases. It is therefore important to replace these buses with a more environment friendly option such as Electric Vehicles (EV) India has been progressive and the policy decisions have been in the right direction towards adoption and implementation of the concept of EVs. The biggest challenge in making it operational is providing better understanding of this new technology, its benefits and the policy around it to policy implementers, such as State Road Transport Undertakings (SRTUs) and also creating the infrastructure to manage the day to day operation and maintenance of the fleet.
