The Delhi airport has decided to replace all its vehicles with EVs in the next four months for its airside operations under the Green Transportation Program to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions annually, its operator Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) said on Monday.

The plan to induct induct 62 electric vehicles at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport's airside, which include runway, taxiway, and apron involved in the arrival and departure of flights, will help reduce nearly 1,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions yearly. 

DIAL's announcement of the Green Transportation Program comes on the sidelines of the World Environment Day.
