Delhi power discom BSES has facilitated the installation of nearly 5,000 EV charging points at more than 2,000 locations in Delhi, building a strong and distributed charging network.
The data on energy consumption at these EV charging stations is important for load forecasting, distribution system planning and integrated resource planning in the country, according to the report. PTI SLB VIT NSD NSD
