This document discusses smart cities and support for electric mobility in India. It outlines India's Smart Cities Mission to develop 100 citizen-friendly and sustainable cities. It also describes the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan to boost electric vehicle manufacturing and adoption to reduce pollution, support renewable energy goals, and drive industrialization. The document advocates for expanding electric vehicles and charging infrastructure in India's rapidly growing cities and overall transport sector to address urbanization challenges and pursue a sustainable, electric transportation future.

1. SMART CITIES AND SUPPORT
ACTIONS FOR ELECTRO
MOBILITY IN INDIA
PROF. T.G. SITHARAM
CHAIR PROFESSOR IN THE AREA OF ENERGY, AND, PROFESSOR,
DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING & CISTUP
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE,
BANGALORE – 560012.

2. SMART CITIES MISSION IN INDIA
• Urban renewal and
retrofitting program by GOI
• Mission to develop 100
cities all over the country
making them citizen friendly
and sustainable

3. SMART CITIES – PHASE 1 AND
PHASE 2

4. CHALLENGES FACING URBAN AREAS
Rapid growth of population and vehicles
 Air pollution
 Noise Pollution
 Urban Sprawl
Lack of proper planning and land use
initiatives
 More trips (length, duration) per capita.
Envisages the need for effective PuT
which can move people and goods, not
vehicles.

5. NATIONAL ELECTRICAL MOBILITY
MISSION PLAN (NEMMP) 2020
 Boost Domestic manufacturing capabilities for
EV’s
 Mitigate adverse environmental impact from
road transport
 Reduce noise and air pollution
 9th Jan 2013 – launched
 Goal is to produce 6 to 7 Million units of new
electric vehicles
Society of Manufactures of EV’s

6. E-MOBILITY STATUS
 Overall share of Ev’s is small
 Capital subsidy proposed
 Exemption of road tax and Vat for EV in
Karnataka state
 Early 2000 – Reva car – Now Tech Mahindra
80km with 5 Hr charging time
 Now many brands - Hybrid and electric Bus –
BMTC
 Fully electric taxi service for corporates 2015 –
Lithium Technologies
 E-rickshaws – 100000 in Delhi – Passed Motor
Vehicle Amendment Bill 2015
 Large presence in Urban mobility by Metros
(delhi, Mumbaim, Blore) and Indian Railways

7. FUTURE IS ELECTRIC
• Electricity For India’s
Future Growth – The
Renewable Energy
• Renewable energy
sources :
Hydroelectric power,
solar energy
(photovoltaic), wind
energy, energy from
biomass , Ocean
energy
2050

9. ELECTRIC VEHICLES
• seen as a critical component of global
climate change mitigation efforts.
• co-benefits of energy security,
• Industrialization,
• job creation,
• among other things drives the response
of various stakeholders

10. TAKE A DEEP BREATH, INDIA
SWITCH TO ELECTRIC CARS
India will become the
world's third-largest
auto market by 2030,
and it simply doesn't
have domestic reserves
capable of filling all
those tanks !!.
