Description & Context

The EV & ESS Policy 2020-2030, launched on 29 October 2020 as one of India's first state EV policies, is governed by a 12-member Steering Committee chaired by the Principal Secretary ITE&C, with operational roles distributed across Transport, TSREDCO (state nodal agency for charging infrastructure), TSSPDCL, TSNPDCL, GHMC, and TSRTC. Supply-side incentives align with the Electronics Policy 2016 framework and are administered by the Electronics Wing ITE&C. T-Works provides dedicated EV prototyping facilities for startups at subsidised rates. Key investments include Olectra Greentech (India's largest e-bus manufacturer), Biliti Electric (world's largest electric 3-wheeler facility at 2,40,000 units/year), and the Amara Raja Gigafactory for lithium-ion battery production. EV manufacturing clusters are under development at Nymathapur and Divitipally Energy Park.
