Case Study: Adoption and Analysis of Electric Vehicle Policy

Making the transition to electric vehicles is one of the most crucial strategies for reducing urban air pollution and addres sing climate change (EVs). In order to encourage this shift, India has implemented government programs like the Faster Acceptance and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (FAME) plans. This is because declining battery costs and advancements in technology are boosting global acceptance of these vehicles. The research looks at how different EV policy have affected the number of EV registrations in Jaipur, with a particular emphasis on 2,3, and 4wheelers.The analysis takes into account the quantity of newly registered electric vehicles as well as the penetration of electric vehicles among these total new registrations during various time periods in Jaipur. Registration data for vehicles was gathered, classified as EV or non-EV, and cross referenced with applicable EV policies. In order to analyze the impact of important policies on EV adoption in Jaipur, the paper highlights programs including the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP 2020), FAME India Scheme, and state government incentives for Rajasthan. Findings indicate a considerable increase in EV registrations, with noteworthy increases in EV penetration across all vehicle categories, especially during the execution of FAME Phase II and state level incentives. With the greatest impact shown in the two- and three-wheeler sectors, the results highlight the significance of supportive policies in advancing the adoption of EVs.
