EV-ready highways on GQ

As part of the proposed Vision 2030: PM Public Transport Sewa, the government is working on building electric vehicle-ready highways on the Golden Quadrilateral. It would be a major effort towards reducing fuel consumption and vehicular emissions through electrification of intercity public transport over the next seven years. E-highways would be powered with green energy-enabled charging infrastructure. The Ministry of Road Transport & Highways plans to award electrified highways on build, operate, and transfer model to private companies. Work is also on to identify and convert existing highways into e-highways by setting up enough charging stations for electric buses to ply between cities.
