The environmental and health hazards associated with fossil-fuel-based vehicles are driving city dwellers towards electric vehicles (EVs), which have zero emissions and lower operating costs.
Decarbonising the transport sector is essential not only to achieve the net-zero target but also to improve quality of life through benefits such as better air, reduced traffic-related woes, and urban heat management.
CSTEP’s storage programme has two verticals: 1) techno-economic analysis of various storage systems along with policy aspects, and 2) research and development (R&D) of novel electrode and electrolyte materials for state-of-the-art and emerging battery systems using computer simulation techniques.
The study aims to contribute towards creating an ecosystem of CDW recycling in Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore).
In 2010, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy proposed a 20% subsidy for electric vehicles through a scheme called the Alternate Fuels for Surface Transportation Programme.
