India Electric Mobility Index:
NITI Aayog launched the India Electric Mobility Index
- It is a first-of-its-kind tool developed to comprehensively track and benchmark the progress of States and Union Territories (UTs) in achieving their Electric Mobility goals.
- The India Electric Mobility Index (IEMI) tracks, evaluates and scores all Indian States and UTs out of 100 across 16 indicators under three-core themes:
- Transport Electrification Progress to capture demand-side adoption,
- Charging Infrastructure Readiness to track allied charging infrastructure development and
- EV Research and Innovation Status: Covers supply-side ecosystem R&D efforts.
- It enables evaluation across States and Union Territories, identifying key drivers of success as well as areas requiring targeted interventions.
- The Index aims to inform decision-making, foster healthy competition among states, and promote sharing of best practices.
- The Index underscores the importance of state-level coordination, integrated planning, and cross-sectoral collaboration in achieving India’s electric mobility vision.
- By identifying strengths and gaps, the Index aims to support states in aligning with national goals while addressing local needs.
- It provides a transparent, comparative framework to assess progress across key themes such as electrification, infrastructure, and innovation.
- It enables states to benchmark their efforts, identify gaps, and learn from each other’s successes.
