To promote electric vehicles (EV) in Uttar Pradesh, the state government is taking several initiatives, including developing a web-based e-mobility dashboard and a mobile app for the EV Accelerator Cell.
Invest UP, the nodal agency for tracking investments in the state, has entrusted UP Development Systems Corporation Limited (UPDESCO), with the task aimed at enhancing e-mobility.
The project will be accomplished by an empanelled agency within 90 days of work allocation. The process of selecting an agency and assigning the work has already begun.
Its noteworthy that the e-mobility dashboard and mobile app will feature enhanced data visibility, improved monitoring, effective management, transparency, and public engagement.
Additionally, information from the Transport, Urban Development, Power Corporation, Housing Department, and UP Expressway Industrial Development Authority (UPEIDA) will be compiled to create a database.
The dashboard will be an essential tool for the Yogi Adityanath government to oversee, manage, and encourage the use of EVs, aligning with the state’s commitment to a cleaner and more sustainable transportation future.
The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) is focused on promoting cleaner and more sustainable transportation options. To support this, an EV Accelerator Cell will be established to oversee and execute e-mobility initiatives in UP.
The e-mobility dashboard will be tailored for use by relevant departments and Invest UP officials, providing them with the means to track, manage, and assess the deployment of EVs and charging stations.
The initiative will support the promotion of e-mobility, reduce carbon emissions, and conserve fossil fuels.
