India's electrification rate could rise to 32% by 2035: IEA report
The International Energy Agency (IEA) says India's electrification rate could rise from 19 per cent to 32 per cent by 2035. Transport is expected to lead that change. As electricity replaces imported fuel, the country's energy import bill could fall. For business owners, this points to a bigger market for electric vehicles and charging, and a possible shift in energy costs.
