We need storage to store renewable energy into battery storage: Gadkari
“We need storage to store renewable energy into battery storage. Standardization of batteries can accelerate EV adoption. We also need standardization for battery energy storage system,” said Road Transport & Highway Minister Nitin Gadkari while talking at the ongoing India Energy Storage Week (IESW) organised by India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA).
He adds, “Automobiles will be a vital industry in the coming years, and battery technology will be in high demand by 2030, bolstering the Make in India initiative. In the next five years, it is expected that all vehicles will be electric. I encourage everyone involved in the electric vehicle business to work together for the betterment of the country by developing innovative solutions for a clean and green future. India ESW is an excellent forum for all decision-makers to discuss India’s future potential.”
Dr Rahul Walawalkar, President, IESA, MD, CES (India), stated, “India has emerged as a global leader in the green hydrogen and e-mobility sectors in recent years, and substantial efforts have been made to raise adoption rates. Because the future of e-mobility and its impact on the environment is a global concern, there is a significant need for appropriate e-mobility norms and regulations to enhance the ecosystem and make it a viable option for people.”
