 "Electric vehicle")
It may not have enough electric vehicles, powerpacks or the capital, but India has found a way towards mass electrification: swap batteries.
The solution, where empty batteries can be exchanged for charged-up ones, is still in nascent stages in China, the world’s largest EV market, where it is anchored in strong government policy. Elsewhere, it hasn’t quite taken off. But for India, it could help leap-frog the nation’s bid to reduce transport emissions and boost its electric footprint.
Across the Indian capital’s dense localities, battery swapping stations are becoming a frequent site at local provision stores and small retail outlets.
