Abstract
The Paris agreement was the first time all 196 member states agreed to find solutions to fight global warming and keep temperatures 2 degree Celsius. Under the umbrella of the agreement, the Paris Declaration on Electro-Mobility and Climate Change called for action towards electric mobility. India is one country attempting to implement Electric vehicles and has set an ambitious target of reaching 100% electric mobility by 2030. However the country has not seen a great lift off in the sector with questions being asked as to what comes first the Electric vehicles? or the charging infrastructure? This thesis attempts to identify the barriers and challenges that are hindering the deployment of Electric charging stations while also looking at... (More)

India is one country attempting to implement Electric vehicles and has set an ambitious target of reaching 100% electric mobility by 2030. However the country has not seen a great lift off in the sector with questions being asked as to what comes first the Electric vehicles? or the charging infrastructure? This thesis attempts to identify the barriers and challenges that are hindering the deployment of Electric charging stations while also looking at ways that the charging network can be catalyzed. The study used a qualitative approach using the system of innovation as its framework and obtained data from various experts involved in the EV sector. The results from the study showed how the deployment is hindered by unavailability of land, a stable grid connection and the goverments incompetency. Ride sharing companies and PPP’s were identified as possible ways of catalyzing the infrastructure (Less)
