The Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), which operates and manages the airport in the national capital, has deployed 57 Electric Vehicles (EVs).
The EVs have been deployed as part of the Green Transportation Program that DIAL announced during World Environment Day in June this year.
With this, the Delhi Airport has become the first in the country to deploy EVs.
Officials said that the measure will help in reducing approximately 1,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually.
As part of the Green Transportation Program, DIAL has initiated the adoption of EVs and drive out all diesel and petrol-run vehicles in a phased manner.
