NITI Aayog Vice Chairman emphasizes role of E-Mobility in accelerating India`s economic growth
Highlighting the transformative potential of the Indian EV industry and its positive impact on both the economy and the environment, NITI Aayog Vice Chairman Suman Bery has emphasized the role of electric mobility in accelerating India’s economic growth along low-carbon pathways and facilitating the nation's net-zero vision for 2070.
In conference on E-Mobility organized by NITI Aayog and supported by WRI India and Asian Development Bank, Amitabh Kant, India's G20 Sherpa, also underscored the need to sustain the momentum of electric mobility in India. He emphasized the seven Cs framework for EVs envisioned by the Prime Minister- Common, Connected, Convenient, Congestion-free, Charged, Clean, and Cutting-edge.
Further, Kant urged for the electrification of 100% of 2-wheelers and 3-wheelers, and 65-70% of buses by 2030. To achieve this vision, he stressed the importance of a low-cost financing framework, a robust charging infrastructure, and collaborative efforts among central, state, and city authorities, all underpinned by a consistent policy framework.
