“Enabling Technologies for Electric Transportation”

About the Course

The transition towards electric mobility offers India not only an opportunity to improve efficiency and transform the transport sector but also addresses several issues that the country is currently grappling with. The concerns regarding energy security and rising current account deficit (CAD) on account of rising fossil fuel imports can be addressed with the uptake of electric mobility. India is a power surplus country and is currently witnessing lower plant load factors due to lower capacity utilization. As per the conservative estimates, demand from electric vehicles (EV) could greatly improve the utilization factor of underutilized power plants, as charging pattern of EV users is considered to coincide with power demand during the non-peak hours in the country.

The new ecosystem offers India the opportunities to become a leader in domestic manufacturing and job creation as electric mobility is still in nascent stages in many advanced markets around the globe. Further, transition to electric mobility can undoubtedly help India achieve its global commitments of reducing carbon footprint and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The batteries in EVs can act as ancillary services for the proliferation of distributed generation resources (DER). Apart from supporting RE generation, EVs with feasible vehicle to grid technology can act as a dynamic storage media and can enhance the grid resilience through ancillary market. This can reduce the burden of exchequer to create static energy storage systems, especially in distribution networks, to support proliferation of grid-connected roof top solar and DERs. However, to accelerate the adoption of electric mobility in India, a lot of preparation needs to be done so that the market grows is Self-sustainable manner with minimal federal support and interventions. The course plans to build up an systematic to deal all these and develop an integrated approach towards it.
