The electric vehicle is one of the most debated topics in India. With rising levels of pollution and lowering levels of non-renewable resources, India is on the cusp of adopting e-mobility. While both the government and private sectors coming up with different strategies and incentives to make users switch to electric vehicles, range anxiety, high upfront costs and nascency of the technology continue to discourage them.
However, the Indian government is doing its part to put together a positive idea of using electric vehicles. Riding on the launch of the second phase of FAME scheme, India is aiming to achieve 30 per cent e-mobility by 2030.
At a time when India is looking to shift its focus towards green mobility and business events, consulting firm Trescon is trying to make the dialogue simpler through its event World EV Show (WEVS).
The event scheduled to be held on November 14 in Delhi, is aimed at opening up business opportunities and investments in the Indian electric vehicle space by gathering global EV experts, policymakers, public and private automotive companies, lithium-ion batteries manufacturers and mobility service providers.
