Laying the groundwork for electric vehicle roaming in India
The study discusses the introduction of interoperability and electric vehicle (EV) roaming as means to strengthen India’s public charging space. Part of a collaboration with eDRV, the study identifies focus areas for interoperability in EV charging. Further, the three levers necessary for introducing EV roaming are examined. The lack of a charging infrastructure is a key barrier hampering India’s e-mobility ambitions. The study discusses how interoperability and electric vehicle (EV) roaming can boost user demand and aggregate charger supply, thereby catalysing the entire EV ecosystem. As a public policy consultation exercise, the report consolidates inputs from a diverse group of stakeholders to suggest a blueprint for establishing roaming in India.
