Our Impact

Transforming Transport for a Greener Tomorrow

The team drives low-carbon road transport in India by targeting heavy-duty vehicles; exploring clean fuels, technologies, and policies; integrating renewables into EVs; and delivering data-driven, ecosystem-based strategies through collaboration and analysis.

Contribution to the Grand Challenges

India's road transport sector is a significant contributor to both fossil-fuel consumption and air pollution. As India strives for energy independence and aims to achieve net-zero emissions, it becomes crucial for the country to transition towards clean vehicle technologies powered by renewable energy sources. To support this transition effectively, a range of technologies, strategies, and policies are necessary. The Green Mobility team, through its rigorous technical and policy research, develops evidence-based strategies to enable India’s Green Energy Transition and ensure Clean Air for All.
