Rapid Deployment Of Electric Vehicle And Why Is It Important In Nepal-2022
As the Fuel prices are getting high people aren’t able to afford to use their vehicles for transportation. Especially for a country like Nepal Fuel prices are too high. So many people have turned towards EV for their daily means of transportation. Even Government has been encouraging it’s citizen to use EVs these past years.
Electric vehicles (EVs) are a promising technology for achieving a sustainable transport sector in the future, due to their very low to zero carbon emissions, low noise, high efficiency, and flexibility in grid operation and integration.
Analysis
Analysis of demand for an Ev should be listed in the priority in the countries like Nepal which has to depend on their neighboring country for the CRUDE oil.
Budgeting
A good Project Budget sustains itself as a tool to estimate project costs. All costs that are likely to incur in a project can highlight in the planning stage. A good project budget would include the cost planning for the development of infrastructure, cost estimation for the project, etc.
Development of infrastructure
The development of infrastructure should be done. EVs should be used as means of transportation roads, charging stations, etc are its infrastructures.
On the charging side, the EV infrastructure is insufficient. The network of charging stations, particularly fast-charging ones, is sparse. Battery quality, the time needed to charge, and limited access to chargers are the biggest concerns for potential EV buyers, accounting for 38 percent of all concerns raised. The rollout of charging infrastructure is accelerating, but no integrated, seamless, and compelling solution is available, because the market is very fragmented. OEMs should take the lead in this area.
On the EV-parts side, challenges arise from long delivery times—especially for EV batteries—and the failure to prepare adequately for EV after-sales services.
Availability
Most of the fuel company are investing in the Electric vehicle and producing more EV than ever. Since the government are being flexible with EV and reducing Tax much they can people will be more ease for to buy EV. Many Indian brands with Electric vehicle are entering Nepal to support Nepal to make eco-friendly environment and maintaining Public relation. people are investing in EV many EV shops can be seen in Nepal. Servicing centers for such Evs should be available in large scale.
Pricing
As in Nepal EVs are slowly growing in the country due to the high price of fuel and it’s still hiking the price. though rising the price of fuel many people have thought of alternatives which already exists in the here Nepal. those who are aware of it could not afford the EV . Fuel vehicles are less expensive than the Electric vehicle whereby manufacturing hub should be installed in many places of Nepal for it make it more affordable than it is now.
Charging station
For to make and promote Nepal’s ongoing green environment every point should be focused which making users reliable with the vehicle. One of those is a charging station according to the KM. in every province to support EV and make it feasible to make the ride easy. Government should be more focused on making charging ports on a different level and every EV should be in a Standard port every place would be feasible to charge the Vehicle. As of now on few places are there to charge the EVs in Nepal but not on road. it is installed in a few hotels and resorts which is not a good place to make the station.
Government policies
The government is encouraged to change fossil-fuel cities to go-green electric fuel which makes the city clean from noise and air pollution. since the EV’s tax is made lower than before it has made people invest in EVs and encouraging by importing as many EVs in coming years and adding higher tax in fossil fuel engines and lesser tax on EV.
Marketing
Marketing is the promotion of product. Promotion of Evs should be done while promoting knowledge of EV should be shared along with its future advantages should be enlighten.
Conclusion
The progress that the EV manufacturer has seen in recent years is not only extremely welcomed, but highly necessary to maintain the Eco-system. The biggest obstacle to the widespread adoption of electric-powered transportation is cost-related, as gasoline and the vehicles that run on it are readily available, convenient, and less costly. we hope that through mass marketing and environmental education programs people will feel empowered to drive an electric-powered vehicle. Each person can make a difference, so go electric and help make a difference.
