Delhi urban technology and electric mobility initiatives

Overview

The Delhi government has initiated several measures to address air pollution and urban management through electric mobility and technological upgrades. Under the Delhi Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy 2026, the administration has distributed 7.91 crore rupees in incentives to over 2,700 residents for vehicle purchases and scrapping, with the majority of applications involving two-wheelers. To support these efforts, officials launched five public EV charging stations and 13 new ambient air quality monitoring stations.

Building on these domestic initiatives, the government is now seeking international cooperation to bolster its urban infrastructure. During the second India-Russia Business Forum, Delhi officials expressed interest in Russian investment for sectors including electric mobility, pollution control, water management, and waste management. Discussions have specifically focused on the potential supply of electric buses and the establishment of local manufacturing facilities to meet rising demand.
