Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Delhi Transport Minister Kailash Gehlotji just released a DRAFT policy for promoting Electric Vehicles in Delhi



 



Salient features of this policy could be grouped under following objectives / goals :

    

     Maximize  :   Public transport / Non-polluting transport / Video-Conferencing

·         Individual e-auto owners will get down payment subsidy up to Rs 12,500 and 5 per
     cent interest subvention

·         Cashback for passengers using e-autos up to Rs 10 per trip

[  Following would be a better method :
For taxis / rickshaws running on Hybrid fuel ( producing less Co2 ) or Electric Vehicles ( zero emission ) , both , the driver and the passenger will get " Carbon Credits " , which will also get displayed on the DigiMet as also on the FareCalc Mobile App on the smart phone of the passenger ( @ 20 % of the fare payable ? )

These amounts will get transferred to their respective Jan Dhan Bank Accounts ( thru DTB ) , every quarter

     cent interest subvention.

·         Full waiver on registration fees, road tax and MCD one-time parking fee for electric
      cabs 

·         Fully electric buses will be at least 50 per cent of all new buses procured




     Encourage : Air based transport / Water based transport / “Public owned “Transport /
                         Shared transport / Night – time transport

·         Exemption from prohibition on plying and idle parking of light-goods vehicles during
     specified timings.


                       
Methods Proposed  -  Incentivize / Dis-Incentivize :

        batteries for electric goods carriage

        point for the first 10,000 points at residential or non-residential buildings

=========================================================


 I have not studied the full text of the DRAFT POLICY , so I am unable to say if the policy also carries specific measures for :

     Minimize     :   Private transport / People travel / Polluting transport


     Discourage :   Land-based transport / “Within City “transport / “Privately Owned transport


For a comprehensive CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK for this, read :
