OUTLINE
When it comes to traditional vehicles, people in India often tend to check the meter twice at the
gas station even before filling the tank. There exists a trust issue. Similarly, in electric charging
stations, electric vehicle owners wonder whether or not the vehicle is getting charged, or
whether the charging station is working properly. The trust issue with electric vehicle charging
stations is something manufacturers and charging station providers are trying to solve. In other
words, the quality of the electricity supplied from the grid to the charging stations always keeps
fluctuating in India, and it varies from one location to another.
According to a Market Watch, at present, there are about 250 public charging
stations operating in India. In the coming days, the number of charging stations is expected to
witness massive growth. As per Kenneth Research, the Indian electric vehicle infrastructure
market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CARG) of over 40% during a
forecast period 2019-2025.
Theoretically, to sustain the growth of one million electric vehicles, India will need about 4 Mn
(100kW) fast-charging stations, which will charge the vehicle in 1-2 hours. However, as
per DataLabs by Inc42 estimates, India will need 2 Mn (mix of both fast and slow) charging
stations to sustain 1 Mn electric vehicles on the road in each city or region.
The Union Ministry has sanctioned 6000 EV stations on 9 expressways. The union minister,
Mahendra Pandey stated that charging is the main problem when it comes to the usage of EVs.
The Minister requested that the Automotive Research Association of India create technologies
to shorten the charging period for electric vehicles. He also explained that the cost of EV
batteries can reduce if produced locally in India. According to him, the sale of electric cars has
surged dramatically in recent months due to the government’s different plans and incentives.
The government is offering support up to Rs 362 crore per gigaton in this area of EVs through
these newly announced PLI programs, according to Pandey. He also emphasized the
government’s FAME I and II programs have been extended for another two years, through
9
March 31, 2024. Through the initiative, the government would provide financial assistance
ranging from 8% to 13% for car component makers and from 13% to 18% for EV
manufacturers.
The minister further stated that, in light of the increased use of drones in different applications
in the coming years, the Ministry of Heavy Industries has sanctioned Rs 120 crore for research
and other relevant activities in this respect.

EV fast chargers to be more profitable than petrol pumps, claims energy major BP.
BP plans to grow its EV charging business in the coming years to 70,000 charging points
by 2030 from 11,000 now. EV chargers are expected to beat petrol pumps in terms of
business profitability.
To understand the revenue model, lets do some calculations for the next 5 years.
11
Note: This is just an example, the revenue/profit depends on daily use of the charging station
and various other factors including if you own the charging station installation place or not.
If we assume the upfront investment of Rs. 40 lakhs, we can expect to consume 500-1000 kWh
of EV electricity every day. Lets just say the daily consumption is 1000kWh.
When it comes to the use of electricity (for 360 days and a fixed margin of Rs. 10 per
consumption).
EV sales are increasing, and the need for charging stations is increasing daily, even though
there are just 1% of EVs in India compared to regular automobiles.
The answer is YES if you have the financial means and are willing to take on a larger role as an
entrepreneur. Now is the moment to invest in the future, specifically in electric vehicle charging
stations.
INTRODUCTION

The Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) has established goals
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector and increase the
energy efficiency of Vermont’s motor vehicle fleet. This is an important factor in
realizing energy efficiency improvements and greenhouse gas reductions detailed in the
2013 Chittenden County ECOS Plan1 and the draft Chittenden County Climate Action
guide; as well as climate action and energy plans across all levels of government in
Vermont. The draft Chittenden County Climate Action guide prioritizes the promotion of
electric vehicle infrastructure for electric vehicle charging as a key action to meeting
greenhouse gas reduction targets established by the State legislature. Electric vehicle
(EV) technology supports these goals by providing low carbon, highly efficient and cost
effective transportation. The technology, data and costs documented in this guide reflect
the most current information available at the time of publication. However, potential
owners and installers of charging equipment should expect the information and
recommendations in this guide will change as the EV industry matures.

BUSINESS IDEAS FOR INTRAPRENEURIAL AND
ENTREPRENEURIAL OPPORTUNITIES
With EV Charging as a Service, you pay a monthly subscription fee and avoid paying all the
upfront costs of equipment, installation, and permitting. You receive a turnkey EV charging
solution, which includes installation and management software.
If you choose WattLogic as your EV charging company, you may consider charging employees
or the public to use your electric vehicle supply equipment. These charging fees could cover the
cost of your subscription fee. Depending on how robust your EV charging station system is you
could even see positive cash flow!
1. TRICKLE CHARGE
The slowest method of charging your EV at home, using a standard (three-prong) 220V plug. It
is only recommended in urgent cases, with caution and consultation with electricity providers.
2. AC CHARGE
Having a wallbox installed lets you charge 3-4 faster using AC Household Charging. AC Public
Charging is also available.
3. DC CHARGE
The fastest way to charge your EV – at a public DC Fast charging station with power from
50kW and above. With this method you can top up your battery from 20 to 80% in approx. 40
minutes. There are also some ultra-fast charging stations that already provide more than
150kW.

A Liability Insurance is there to help protect you against any claims resulting from damage
or injury that may be caused by your business’s operations, its products, or on its premises.
There are many types of liability insurance:
General Liability Insurance - A type of insurance coverage that businesses need to
protect themselves against any legal liability for damages or injuries to any third party,
plus advertising injuries and personal injuries as well as any injuries or damages that
take place because of your business's operations.
Public Liability Insurance - Covers you and your business against any damages or losses
caused to a third-party (i.e., anyone other than you—the insured person or business—
and the insurance company) on the premises.
44
Professional Liability Insurance - Protects you or your business against claims of
professional negligence, errors, or omissions. It is most useful for professionals like
architects, engineers, consultants, lawyers, building designers, medical professionals,
and accountants.
Management Liability - This insurance is there to protect your company’s directors and
officers against circumstances that aren’t usually covered under a public or general
liability policy, like allegations of wrongdoing, directed at the company’s managers,
directors and officers.
Contractual Liability - This covers you and your business against contractual liabilities, or
those liabilities that you and your business would assume from entering into a contract
of any nature, like a lease, rental agreement, or other common business contracts. It will
cover you for things like financial losses and legal expenses.
45
Sign Board Insurance - This covers your business against any accidental loss or damage
to the signboards and hoardings that are placed outside and in public from dangers like
natural perils, fire, and theft. It also covers against legal liability in case the signboard is
the cause of any third-party damages.
Plate Glass Insurance - A type of insurance policy that will protect your business against
any damage or breakage of large panes of glass on your commercial buildings, like shop
windows, glass doors, transparent walls, and more.
3. Money Insurance
It is there to help you protect your business's money and monetary transactions, including
cash, cheques, drafts, postal orders. You and your business will be protected in case of theft,
loss, or accidental damage to your money, while it is in transit or secured in a safe or
cash counter.
Know more about Money Insurance.
This protects you and your business against any loss directly resulting from the dishonest acts
of your employees during the course of their employment. So, a fidelity insurance will protect
your business from any financial costs incurred as a result of dishonesty, theft or fraudulent
acts by employees.
This will protect you in case your business’s electronic equipment faces any loss or material
damage to electronic equipment (which can include systems software). This includes costs of
46
repair or replacement, loss or damage to any external data, and the increased cost of working
when your equipment is out of commission.
If your business owns one or many vehicles, or involves the use of vehicles, such as cabs, this
coverage is essential. This type of insurance covers passenger carrying vehicles (like cabs,
autos, buses, etc.), goods carrying vehicles (like trucks, tempos, lorries, etc.) and any special
vehicles used for farming, mining or construction.
It is mandatory for all businesses to buy a commercial vehicle insurance for their vehicles, such
as for auto-rickshaws, cabs, school buses, tractors, commercial vans and trucks, amongst
others.

This policy is for employers when they provide compensation to their employees in case of
accidents that happen while they are on the job. It covers employees in the case of diseases,
bodily injury, disability, or death caused due to accidents in course of employment and helps
them to get the care they need.
47
By doing this, it enables employers to meet the requirements of the Workmen Compensation
Act and protection from lawsuits.

The breakeven formula for a business provides a dollar figure they need to break even.
This can be converted into units by calculating the contribution margin (unit sale price fewer
variable costs). Dividing the fixed costs by the contribution margin will provide how many units
are needed to break even
The estimated cost for the installation of a fast-charging station is far higher than an A/C
charging station. The cost of electricity, civil work, manpower, maintenance and the charging
equipment must all be factored into the total capital investment, which according to Volttic EV
Charging Solutions, adds up to Rs 16.5 lakh for a Bharat DC01 Type 2 charging station (for CCS-
type charger, the costs are higher, with the highest going up to Rs 40 lakh. With land leasing
rates included, this would also mean a 5-year running cost of Rs 31 lakh. With 8 hours of usage
per day and a profit margin of Rs 3.5 per unit of electricity, an operator can recover the
hardware costs in 5 years, according to EV reporter. With 16 hours of usage, the RoI can be
achieved in the 3.5 year.
