摘要

Across the globe, governments are promoting electric vehicles (EV) because of their benefits such as improved air quality, reduced fuel consumption, and improved energy security. Government of India (GoI) has also launched a series of policies and schemes to help promote EV adoption. However, different states offer different incentives in the state landscape providing non-uniform economic benefits in the country level. The main findings magnify the huge discrepancies in the policies implemented by various countries, which do not aim towards a coherent strategy approach. This paper uses Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) method to compare the EV policy’s’ qualitative parameters across 12 Indian states to propose a working approach for “best-practice” and “unified” EV policy in India, by reviewing individual state policies. This would help in better adoption, implementation, and monitoring of EV vehicles in India.
