This whitepaper is an outcome of the efforts and dedicated work of contributors from India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA). The report is of critical importance as India navigates its concerted efforts towards decarbonisation. India is at a critical juncture in its journey towards electrification, driven by the need to enhance energy security, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve urban air quality. As the world’s third-largest importer of crude oil, India’s dependency on oil imports has significant economic and strategic implications, exacerbated by fluctuating global oil prices. The document analyses in detail the current state of electrification in India and enablers required to increase the pace of adoption and successfully contribute to the nation’s goals of reducing green house gas emissions and enhancing energy security. This whitepaper has been made possible with invaluable contribution from automotive OEM's, policy makers, Industry Experts and related stakeholders.
