Electric Vehicle penetration in India could reach 30% by 2030 and this will generate an estimated savings of about 474 Million tons of oil import and 846 Million tons of CO2 according to a study by NITI Aayog and Rocky Mountain Institute. Research shows that 83% of the consumers globally are hesitant to adopt EVs because of the battery life and range anxiety. The extreme price sensitive Indian customers are skeptical about siting charging infrastructure in the road network. In the past few years, researchers worked on the optimal deployment and sizing of charging stations using objective functions and different optimization algorithms. But most of the works have taken the European and other Western cities into consideration. This paper proposes a methodology to calculate the number of charging stations for EVs considering extensive environmental elements in designing the charging infrastructure in Indian Cities. Though there is a strong push for EVs, currently we are in the nascent stage of market development in India and thus it will be difficult to lay down a detailed plan. In this paper, the security factors that are to be prioritized for the installation of EV charging infrastructure in Indian Urban areas are also identified. Finally, the feasibility and viability of the methodology are applied in an Indian City as a business case.
