About the Online Event:

The rapid growth in EV uptake required to reach India’s policy targets will have to address two major challenges. The first challenge is ensuring the deployment of the charging infrastructure required to serve the needs of the ever-growing number of EVs. This raises two questions:

1. What policies and regulatory frameworks are required to enable the efficient deployment of charging infrastructure?
2. What business models can reach sufficient coverage of charging infrastructure that meets the needs of the EV user?

The second challenge is the integration of the EVs into the power system securely and efficiently. This raises two questions:

1. How can the potential impacts of the additional EV load in the power system be managed?
2. How can the flexibility potential of Vehicle-to-X (V2X) be unlocked?

Join Pradyumna Bhagwat and Samson Hadush to explore the toolbox consisting of solution choices and recommendations to tackle these issues.
