Imagine it’s 31st Dec, 2029 and we are going to be welcoming the year 2030, where everyone has their fleet commitments to turn electric. What happens on January 1st, 2030?
In this episode, we ask the question WHO is responsible for going electric in 2030, and who will carry the burden of the EV transition - the driver, the city official, or the business?
I am joined by Adhnan Wani to break down Delhi's latest policy DMVADASP Scheme to push fleet operators to go electric. Adhnan works at Koan Advisory Group - a research-driven advisory firm based in Delhi that supports businesses and governments across a wide range of markets.
With a Master’s in Social design and a bachelor's in mechanical engineering, Adhnan carries out research at Koan on the topics of energy, mobility, and sustainability.
