Charging infrastructure for electric vehicles: revised guidelines & standards
The government of India has started addressing the ecosystem of electric vehicles (EVs) and the country's infrastructure (or rather, the lack of it) to support them. To make further progress towards setting up charging infrastructure, Union Minister of State for Power and New and Renewable Energy (IC) and Skill Development & Entrepreneurship RK Singh has announced revised guidelines that the government says will address the concerns of EV owners. The ministry says the revised guidelines and specifications for charging infrastructure shall supersede the earlier guidelines and standards issued by the Ministry of Power on December 14, 2018.
