Smart EV Sharing Infrastructure with Solar Powered EV Battery Swapping/Charging Stations – Rs. 15, 00, 000/-
India has the world’s largest untapped Electric 2 Wheeler (E2W) market. E2W’s have a present market penetration of nearly 5% in India (Oct 2022). Although, E2W’s have high market potential in India, in spite of the subsidies and incentives[1] it is yet to achieve wide acceptance among the users.
E2W’s in India presently faces major barriers such as:
The objective is to provide a zero cost EV experience to the user available at their doorstep with sustainable power source. The stake holders involved are the – residential EV user, EV Service Provider and the local electricity distribution company (DISCOM).
To overcome such barriers, offering Low cost /No cost investment options will make E2W’s attractive. This project explores novel ideas to overcome these barriers and improve the E2W market penetration.
