Union Minister RK Singh launches dashboard for Data on Adoption and Forecasts of Electric Vehicles

Power and New and Renewable Energy Minister RK Singh launched the EV-Ready India Dashboard evreadyindia.org in New Delhi on Monday. Addressing the occasion, the Minister asserted that the future is going to be electric.

He expressed confidence that the price of storage will come down, and soon the diesel and petrol vehicles will be history. He said, it is imperative for India to switch to electric mobility as the country has aimed to become the third-largest economy in the coming years. He said, this aim will require self-reliance in the energy sector.

 
According to the Power and New and Renewable Energy Ministry, the dashboard is a free digital platform focusing on near real-time electric vehicle adoption and forecasts, associated battery demand, charging density, and market growth trends.

The dashboard is expected to facilitate greater inclusion across audiences, for the industry, policymakers and end users of electric vehicles. The dashboard has forecast a 45 per cent growth in electric vehicles by 2030.
