Here is a confirmation :
Individual can set up
charging station for commercial use: R K Singh
Highlights :
The power ministry would soon bring an electric
vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure policy, which will
also allow individuals to set up charging
station for commercial use to boost e-mobility,
said Power and New & Renewable Energy Minister R K Singh Sunday.
"We have circulated the EV Charging Policy for comments (among other department/ministries). The second line of the policy says that everybody is free to set up EV charging station," Singh told reporters at International Symposium to Promote Innovation & Research in Energy Efficiency (Inspire).
When asked whether individuals would be able to use the facility on commercial basis, he replied, "Absolutely. You dont need a licence".
Here is what I have been pleading with our
Policy Makers :
· EACH HOME – A
CHARGING STATION
Do not rule out Manoj Bhargava ( BillionsinChange )
coming out with his next generation ( V 2.0 ) electricity generating bicycle to
be able to re-charge such small / quickly rechargeable batteries , right in
your garage or housing society compound !

It is time for a thorough re-vamp of our Electricity Act
And as for that 90 page , “ National
Electric Vehicle Policy “ document which NITI Aayog has prepared in consultation
with Rocky Mountain Association and likely to release today or tomorrow ,
policy recommendations in respect of Vehicle
Charging Infrastructure may already be rendered “ Out-dated “
by ELON and ION !
Just allowing “ Charging Stations “ to be able to “ Sell
Electricity “ and permitting Private Sector to set up such “ Charging Stations
“ , will miserably fall short of our goals for
E-Mobility ( estimated 500 million vehicles in India to be electric by
2030 )
As it is , currently we have approx. 60,000 petrol / diesel
pumps in India , which fill up a vehicle in ( ave ) , 10 minutes
But a Lithium-ion Battery of an Electric Car ( approx. 100 Kwh ) , needs 300 minutes for a full charge ( 30
times longer ! ). Will we need 30 times many more Charging Stations ?
And I hope , it recommends amending Electricity Act whereby ,
Anyone can generate and SELL electricity
, anytime and to anyone and at any price !
Observations :
* On the existing highway, no one will want to drive an Electric
Car for 60 hours !
* Setting up those battery charging stations will be
a total waste of scarce funds
PM Shri Modi , speaking at the Global Mobility Summit :
“ Industry to invest
in ,
# Manufacturing
of Electric Vehicles
# Charging Infrastructure
# Battery manufacturing
Charged mobility is the way
forward for the country
There is a need for generating power for electric mobility
through renewable energy
The government proposes to amend building by-laws to make
it mandatory to set up electric vehicle charging
stations in residential and commercial buildings and parking lots.
The proposals include ,
· offering round the-clock charging infrastructure
facility to all electric vehicles in residential buildings,
· setting up charging bays at 20% capacity of all
vehicles,
· on-spot metering and payment services in both
commercial and residential buildings
===========================
Dear Shri Puriji,
Your idea is even better !
Why have road-side EV battery charging stations , where EVs have
to queue up for 3 hours (time those Electric Cars supplied to EESL by TATA and
M&M need for a full charge ) ?
Hardly any city car travels more than 80 km per
day. One overnight charge in one’s own garage is more than
sufficient !
So , why not make a beginning of your proposal , with those
millions of buildings being built all over India, under PM Awas Yojana ? Make
it mandatory for these to have a Roof Top Solar based Battery Charging
Installation
