Main Body

Hurdles faced by energy transition of transport sector: (1) Manufacturing hurdles: due to lack of availability of raw materials (eg Lithium for electric vehicles). (2) Issue of food security due to ethanol blending of 20% by 2025. (3) Technological bottleneck: as energy transition needs inclusion of new technologies (eg Green Hydrogen). (4) Funding issue: As transition calls for $50-100 billion in transportation.

Government Steps: (1) Green Hydrogen Mission to produce hydrogen fuel based vehicles. (2) Push to electric vehicles (TACE benefits). (3) Shift to Bharat Norme VI to reduce emission. (4) Focus on mass transportation (eg. hydrogen bus in Leh). Through this, sustainable transport system can help in achieving goal of 'Swachchh Bharat, Swasthya Bharat'.
