ETAuto Electric Vehicle Conclave, 2019 ETAuto Electric Vehicle Conclave 2019
As it’s been more than a year since the government announced its vision for complete electrification of fleet in India,
ETAuto Electric Vehicle Conclave 2019 will relook at the steps taken so far and what's missing in expediting the mission.
The conclave will focus on the electric vehicle ecosystem, the government’s steps towards promoting it, the automobile industry’s readiness for EV, the possibility of building economically viable charging infrastructure, and battery technologies that can be improved and adopted. LINK Quote:
Delivering his key note address, Frank Muehlon said that the to encourage adoption of EVs in the country charging infrastructure and renewable power generation are the prime requirements. He acknowledged the India's efforts to not only the stick to country-bound standards but extending its reach to adopt global regulations of vehicle electrification which in fact opened prospects to increase demand.
"OEMs in India are converging to global standards like CCS and ChaDemo. Country's organisations like NITI, BIS and ARAI Ministries took right steps to embrace international regulations instead of generating again another one which would lack sale," he added.
He further said that grid enforcement for EV charging ecosystem will only make sense when the energy consumed will be from renewable source. "Only 15 to 16 per cent of energy used for charging in India is in the form of renewable. At ABB we are targeting to take this upto 40 per cent in the next couple of years," he noted.
In the end, he also underlined the need to transition from a centralized to a distributed grid framework in order to make the whole EV ecosystem stronger, smarter and cleaner. |
