Roadmap for Delivery Electrification
Summary
The Deliver Electric Delhi pilot, involving 35 industry players, investigated barriers to electric vehicle (EV) adoption for final-mile delivery to support the Delhi EV policy. The report analyzes the economic case for electrification, comparing EV costs and performance against fossil fuel vehicles, and identifies the roles of policy, charging infrastructure, and finance in scaling adoption. If 100 percent sales penetration of electric final-mile delivery vehicles is achieved by 2030, it could result in 750,000 vehicles on the road, avoiding 14.2 million tons of CO2, 46,900 tons of NOx, and 530 tons of PM emissions over their lifetime.
Key insights
- The Deliver Electric Delhi pilot engaged 35 industry players and used consultations, interviews, and surveys to identify how charging infrastructure, finance, and policy can facilitate the full electrification of final-mile delivery vehicles.
- Achieving 100 percent sales penetration of electric final-mile delivery vehicles by 2030 could put 750,000 such vehicles on the road, preventing 14.2 million tons of CO2, 46,900 tons of NOx, and 530 tons of PM emissions over the lifetime of those vehicles.
