The number of electric vehicles in the country is increasing day by day. In view of this, Union Minister of Road Transport Nitin Gadkari has given good news to electric vehicle drivers. In fact, work is being done to develop electric vehicles. This will eliminate the problems faced by electric vehicles on highways. Along with the development of roads, work has also begun on developing electric highways at a fast pace.
According to the Vehicle Component Manufacturers Association (ACMA), the National Highways Authority of India will be given the authority to build electric highways. Efforts are also being made to provide electricity at a rate of Rs. 3.50 per unit in talks with the Ministry of Power.
Nitin Gadkari also said that it is not difficult for the Ministry of Power to provide electricity at a lower rate to a government company. Electric highways are economically viable. The construction of cables for this highway will be given to private investors.
This technology is quite popular in countries like Norway and Sweden, where electric highways are being operated. It works on the basis of electric traction on electronic highways, similar to railways. It has power lines installed, which are used to power vehicles. As a practical measure, the government is working on the first electric highway project in Nagpur.
