• o Demand incentives on operational expenditure mode for electric buses will be delivered through State/city transport corporation (STUs).
• o Incentives will be given to 3-wheeler/4 wheeler vehicles used for public transport or registered for commercial purposes.
• o In e-2Ws segment, the focus will be on the private vehicles.
• • Local manufacturing: Special incentives will be given for local manufacturing of critical components for electric vehicles, especially the lithium ion batteries.
• • Only advanced battery and registered vehicles will be incentivized under the scheme.
• • Establishment of charging infrastructure: About 2700 charging stations will be established in metros, million plus cities, smart cities and cities of hilly states across the country.
• o The guidelines propose setting up at least one charging station in a grid of 3km x 3km in the cities; and on both sides of highways connecting major city clusters at every 25km.
• o Existing retail outlets of oil marketing companies (OMCs) will be given higher preference for setting up public charging stations.
• • It is under the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020. 
• 22.2. NATIONAL ELECTRIC MOBILITY MISSION PLAN (NEMMP)
