A recent report from the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) has given Delhi's electric vehicle (EV) policy a thumbs-up, praising its ambitious targets and comprehensive approach to promoting sustainable transportation. However, the report also highlights a crucial area of improvement: the city's charging infrastructure. With a rapidly growing fleet of EVs expected in the coming years, Delhi's policymakers must address the pressing need for a robust and widespread charging network to support the transition to electric vehicles. As the city strives to become a model for sustainable mobility, optimizing its charging infrastructure will be a key factor in determining the success of its EV policy.
