N2 - Rising pollution is a cause of major concern for the Indian cities. Extensive reliance on IC engine-based vehicles as the principal means of transport has raised serious environmental concerns. To address the ongoing problems, there is increased emphasis on developing high-efficient, emission-free means of transport. Keeping this in view, electric and hybrid vehicles appear to be the best alternatives for replacing the conventional vehicles. But wide adoption of electric vehicles will require residential as well as public charging infrastructure analogues to petrol pumps. Level 1, Level 2, and fast EV charging stations have been installed in various countries in the world. A detailed exploration is required to develop a similar customized infrastructure for the Indian market. This work provides a detailed overview of the various technologies and viable options in terms of power quality, power electronic converter topologies, and energy management options optimally feasible in India. Recent policies and initiatives taken by the Government are also presented in this paper.
