Description

India’s commercial vehicle sector is undergoing a profound transformation as the country transitions toward electric mobility to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency. The electrification of medium- and heavy-duty trucks (MDTs and HDTs) is gaining momentum, driven by favorable government policies, declining battery prices, and the growing need for sustainable logistics solutions. This shift marks a critical step in decarbonizing India’s freight movement, which has traditionally relied on diesel-powered vehicles. By 2040, Frost & Sullivan estimates that India will deploy more than 250,000 electric trucks in the MDT and HDT segments, with heavy-duty rigid and tractor models accounting for the largest share. MDTs will also see considerable adoption, particularly in regional deliveries, urban logistics, and construction. The number of electric truck fleets is also expected to drive a surge in power demand. It is also estimated that annual energy consumption is projected to exceed 9,000 GWh by 2040, with cumulative demand exceeding 42,000 GWh between 2025 and 2040. Most of this consumption will be overwhelmingly driven by depot-based destination charging, which offers higher efficiency for fleet operators. In contrast, en route charging will remain limited, even at peak adoption. Segments such as HDT tractors and HDT rigids are likely to be the highest energy consumers, reflecting their intensive daily usage and operational scale. To support this growing fleet and energy needs, India will require approximately 150,000 chargers nationwide by 2040. A clear transition is expected from low-capacity chargers toward high-capacity options ranging from 150kW to 1000kW, particularly after 2030, as fleets demand faster charging to reduce vehicle downtime. This will also lead to a sharp rise in the number of charging stations, particularly in industrial belts, logistics parks, and key freight corridors. Ensuring the availability of reliable, scalable, and high-power charging infrastructure will be critical to unlock the full potential of commercial EV adoption in India.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
