Mapping electric vehicle policy for Indian states

Case study of Maharashtra

India’s geographic size and large population make the decarbonization of the transport sector a monumental task. Against this backdrop, state-level policy within India can serve as an important and effective complement to the federal government’s road-transport electrification efforts. In line with this insight, this report seeks to highlight opportunities for the further development of EV policies at the state level in India by conducting a case study of the state of Maharashtra. Based in part on the extensive policy experience that has been gathered in India and other parts of the world over the past fifteen years, we present various options for the enhancement of policy to promote transport electrification at the state level in India.
