Delhi is expected to get 18,000 vehicle charging points by 2024. Five battery swapping docks will be considered as one charging point, according to a report by Mint. The Delhi government has set the target based on electric vehicles (EV) sales projection for 2024.
According to the projection, 25 per cent of all vehicle registrations by 2024 will be EVs. The Department of Transport released the charging/swapping infrastructure action plan for Delhi 2022-25 on Monday, making the announcement.
The plan also said that currently, Delhi has 2,452 charging points across 1,919 locations. It aims to provide one charging point for every 15 EVs by 2024. The station will be accessible within 3 km from anywhere in the city, the Mint report stated.
