Good afternoon everyone, we the team Vainqueurs are here to do a presentation

on the topic: The road ahead for electric vehicles.

[ NEXT SLIDE]
INTRODUCTION

First let’s see what electric vehicle is?

An electric vehicle is an alternative fuel automobile that uses electric motors

and motor controllers for propulsion

Next is why do we need electric vehicles?

Firstly, the main reason is fast depletion of fossil fuels.

During the pandemic COVID-19, we watched how the environment improved

due to lesser emissions from petrol and diesel-run vehicles and industries in
India. In many cities, the smog completely vanished. In many parts of India,
people could even view distant mountains that had been impossible for them to
see for decades due to the atmospheric hindrances created by the emission of
the smoke from fossil-fuel run vehicles.

Next what are the different types of electric vehicles?

There are 4 different types of electric vehicles namely,

1. Battery electric vehicle

2. Hybrid electric vehicle
3. Plug-in electric vehicle
4. Fuel cell electric vehicle

So now it’s time for the world to switch to electric vehicles.

History of ELECTRIC VEHICLE (video)
The history of electric vehicle’s dates back to 1880’s. It all started with the
invention of electric motor in 1828 by Hungarian physicist and engineer Anyos
Jedlik he invented an early type of electric motor, created a tiny model car
powered by his new motor. In 1832 Scotish inventor Robert Andreson
developed the 1st electric carriage. Thomas Parker in 1884 developed the 1st
production electric car.1897 fleet of electric battery powered taxis named
‘Humming Bird’ dominated the London streets. Ferdinand Porsche, developed
an electric car called the P1 in 1898. Around the same time, he created the
world’s first hybrid electric vehicle that is powered by electricity and a gas
engine. One of the most significant turning points was the introduction of the
Toyota Prius. Released in Japan in 1997, the Prius became the world’s first
mass-produced hybrid electric vehicle. In 2000, the Prius was released
worldwide. Since then, rising gasoline prices and growing concern over carbon
pollution have helped electric vehicle’s become popular.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE ‘s IN INDIA

Electric vehicle industry in India is a growing industry. Government has been

taking many steps in promoting electric vehicles in the country.

At present there are 250 charging stations operating in India. In the near future,
the number of charging stations is set to increase at a massive rate.

[ NEXT SLIDE]
Next talking about the startups in India:

First one is Ather energy, is a company based in Bengaluru and found by Tarun
Mehta and Swapnil Jain in 2013 with focus in electric scooters.
Yulu is a company based in Bengaluru and is found by Amit Gupta in 2017
with focus in Electric scooter.

Ola electric Mobility is a startup based in Bengaluru and that is co-founded by

Ankit Jain in 2017 with focus in e-rickshaws, autos and cars.

E-trio is based in Hyderabad and is founded by Satyapoorna Chander

Yalamanchili in 2017 with focus in Electric cars.

Currently, the Indian electric car market is highly consolidated and is

dominated by few players. Mahindra Electric Mobility Ltd. leads the
market in the country.

COMPARISON BETWEEN ELECTRIC CARS AND COMBUSTION
ENGINE CARS

1. An Electric car is powered by an electric motor. They get their power

from rechargeable batteries installed in the car. Combustion engine car
requires fuel such as coal and petroleum to run. These fuels burn and mix
up with air and give the mechanical energy to run the car.

2.Talking about the price of the electric car, electric car is little expensive to buy
than fuel car. Even though electric cars are more expensive to buy, it is cheaper
to run and maintain than fuel cars.

3.The gases produced by fuel vehicles are mostly greenhouse gases. Greenhouse
gases are the major polluter to the environment and contribute to global
warming. Greenhouse gases include carbon di oxide, carbon monoxide,
nitrogen dioxide etc. Also Pollutants from cars can cause health problems like
allergies, skin irritation, heart disease and respiratory problems such as asthma.
On the other hand, electric Cars have zero emission of the greenhouse gases,
which is one of the best advantages of electric vehicles.

4.Next about the running cost, electric cars have less running cost based on the
fuel costs alone, and maintenance cost is also lower in electric vehicles. Fuel
cars have more moving parts and so their running and maintenance cost is also
high.

5.The final Comparison is that Electric cars takes so many hours to recharge the
battery and there are not enough charging stations also.Fuel car takes few
minutes to refuel the petrol or diesel. Also, there are many petrol pumps in the
country so fuel availability is also very high.

GOVT. INTIATIVES FOR PROMOTING ELECRIC VEHICLE IN
INDIA
There are two govt. initiatives for promoting electric vehicles in India and those
are as following:

1. National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP): Under National

Electric Mobility Mission plan, the govt. is targeting to achieve 6-7
million sales of electric as well as hybrid vehicles in India.
● NEMMP wants hybrid and electric vehicles to become the first
choice of the purchasers in the market, so by doing so these
vehicles can replace the conventional vehicles and thus can reduce
the fuel consumption in the country.
[ NEXT SLIDE]

STEPS TAKEN BY GOVT. FOR FASTER ADOPTION OF ELECTRIC

VECHICLE’S
 ● From the loan amount, a tax cut is announced by the govt. which
will be taken for the purchase of electric vehicles.
● A sale of electricity is considered as a service for charging of
electric vehicles which is set to provide huge incentive which will
attract more investment in charging infrastructure.
● Ministry of Road Transport Highways issued notification which is
regarding the exemption of permit in case of such battery-operated
vehicles.

[ NEXT SLIDE]

Second scheme introduced by Govt. is FAME (Faster Adoption and

manufacture of Hybrid and electric vehicles).

● FAME was launched by Ministry of Heavy Industries and public

enterprises in 2015
● It was launched with the thought of producing and promoting the eco-
friendly vehicles such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles.

This scheme consists of two phases:

1. Phase I: started in 2015, completed on mar 31st 2019

2. Phase II: Started from April1st 2019, will be completed by Mar 31st
2022

[ NEXT SLIDE]
Features of this scheme:

● This scheme provides incentive in the form of subsidies to the

manufacturers of electric vehicles and also to the infrastructure providers
of electric vehicles.
● It is part of NEMMP (National Electric mobility plan)
 ● All vehicles which include two wheelers, three wheelers etc. would get
subsidy benefit of this scheme. It also covers all other electric and hybrid
technologies.

1. Nirmala Sitharaman, finance minister, announced in her Union budget

2021 speech that the government wishes to go ahead with “Vehicle
Scrappage Policy”. The idea of this policy is to phase out cars or
commercial vehicles that are older than 20 or 15 years respectively.
2. In an effort to reduce pollution in Delhi, chief minister, Arvind Kejriwal,
announced the Delhi Electric Vehicle policy under which his government
will waive registration fee and road tax, and provide incentive of up
to ₹1.5 lakh for new electric cars in the national capital.

BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES
1. Reduced noise pollution:
Electric vehicles are usually said to have no sounds as in case of non-
electric that is fuel run vehicles. We hear lot of noises from vehicles if we
 move out to the roads in case of fuel-run vehicles, but in case of electric
vehicles, there is comparatively less noise, thereby reducing noise
pollution.
2. Convenient charging at home:
Batteries are an integral part of an electric vehicle. The electric vehicle is
easy to recharge and the best part is that we don’t need to run to fuel
stations, a normal socket is enough for charging your electric vehicles.
3. Environment friendly:
The biggest advantage of electric vehicle is that it is environment
friendly. It does not emit toxic gases into the air and is 100% eco-friendly
as it is electrically run.
4. Government incentives:
The benefits of buying an electric vehicle is not only restricted to the
vehicle alone. There are various initiatives taken by government like one
taken by Delhi government.
[ NEXT SLIDE]

DISADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES

1. Inaccessibility of charging stations:

Electric fueling stations are still on the development stage. Now for
example, you are on a long trip, and you wish to visit any rural or
suburban area, it’s not necessary that you might find charging stations
everywhere. If you run out of charge and you find no charge stations, you
will be stuck there. So that is one disadvantage of electric vehicles.
2. Range might be a problem:
Electric cars are limited by range and speed. These cars have a range of
just 50-100 miles and they need to be recharged again. So, it’s not
practical if we want to go to a distant place.
3. Lower number of choices:
 The market today has way more options than it was available few years
back. Take example of India itself, currently there are only 6 electric cars
available for sale in India.
4. Longer recharge time:
It takes only couple of time to fuel gasoline-powered cars, but an electric
car takes about 4-6 hours and sometimes Even a day to get fully charged.
And also, the electricity isn’t available free too. Even that is expensive.

Economic reality of ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Electric vehicles are cleaner than Internal combustion engine vehicles

The report found that electric vehicles deliver significant additional benefits to
society over petrol and diesel vehicles by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Electric cars give us cleaner streets making our towns and cities a better place to
be for pedestrians and cyclists

Electric vehicles batteries last longer than the vehicle

Internal combustion engine vehicles use lead-acid batteries, and their recycle
rate is about 98%. The newer batteries for electric vehicles, such as those made
of lithium-ion, include even more valuable and recyclable metals and will have
a life well beyond the vehicle.
The battery on an electric car is a proven technology that will last for many
years. In fact, electric vehicle manufacturers guarantee it. Nissan warrants that
its electric car batteries will last eight years or 100,000 miles, for example
and also Tesla offers a similar guarantee.
Creates more local jobs

electric vehicles provide economic benefits for the state by reducing fuel cost.
The fuel savings become additional disposable income that will be spent mostly
in the local economy so it creates additional jobs in the state. Jobs in the electric
vehicles industry show great potential for new employment opportunities, and
employment is expected to grow in all of the major sectors of the industry. In
addition, jobs will be created as the electric infrastructure is expanded to
support these vehicles

Future of ELECTRIC VEHICLE

In the last few years, trends suggest a rise in interest among the common masses
for electric cars in comparison to electric two-wheelers and ICE or petrol/diesel
cars, as seen on Google Trends. The pandemic has given a boost to electric
vehicles across the world as commuters avoid public transport. According to a
report by NITI Aayog, India can save 64% of anticipated passenger road-based
mobility-related energy demand and 37% of carbon emissions in 2030 by
pursuing a shared, electric, and connected mobility future.

The government of India is dedicated towards adoption of Electric Vehicles for

a cleaner and greener environment. Robust supporting infrastructure with lower
tax on electric vehicles could help to achieve the dream faster.

Can Tesla jumpstart India's electric vehicle revolution? (video)

The company will not just bring in futuristic technology driven cars, but
also help build the missing ecosystem for electric vehicle. This will bolster
the confidence of other electric vehicle manufacturers, increase the
present scale of manufacturing, giving the buyer more options to choose
from, and hence kick start demand. Even if more brands such as Tesla
enter India, the country would still need a shift to renewable energy to
reduce the burden on fossil fuels. This requires work and investment by
both government and private players on a range of issues from
infrastructure to energy storage, and research and development — things
that will take time, and are unlikely to happen overnight.

Conclusion
In Conclusion

From the first electric car developed in 1837 till the present times, we have
witnessed massive advancements, notably in terms of technology but also in the
people’s attitude towards the environmental impact of cars and other mobility
solutions.

While the electric vehicles market is currently an attractive destination for

corporates and start-ups in India, there are still quite a few challenges that need
to be overcome to make electric vehicles ready for mass adoption. For faster
adoption of electric vehicles, the government will also have to offer greater tax
rebates and subsidies to prospective car owners and manufacturers.

Furthermore, electric vehicles will be a stepping stone towards designing an

intelligent, futuristic transport infrastructure in India that is capable of catering
to the mobility needs of the country’s huge population.
