Knowledge Transfer on Bharat ZET Policy Advisory

Date:

This online session, hosted by WRI India, aimed to equip e-FAST India knowledge partners with a nuanced understanding of the Bharat ZET Policy Advisory. This knowledge would empower partners to effectively lead stakeholder engagements across India, ultimately facilitating the dissemination and evolution of the policy. 

 

Recognizing the absence of a holistic approach towards policymaking aimed at accelerated freight electrification in India, the Bharat ZET Policy Advisory, developed by the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser, aims to guide India's transition to zero-emission trucking16. It emphasizes stakeholder consultations through platforms like e-FAST India, led by NITI Aayog. These consultations will inform the creation of a ZET Policy Roadmap, prioritizing interventions and considering staggered timelines and interdependencies.16 

 

Key takeaways from this session include:  

 

  • The Bharat ZET Policy Advisory is a crucial document for guiding the transition to zero-emission trucking in India. It outlines 30 policy interventions across various sectors, including incentivization, regulation, infrastructure, and financing. 

  • e-FAST India knowledge partners are critical in disseminating and evolving the policy through stakeholder engagement and feedback. 

  • To facilitate informed engagement, the knowledge partners were provided with in-depth briefings on the rationale behind each policy intervention outlined in the Bharat ZET Policy Advisory. These briefings included discussions and questions on relevant stakeholders, their potential concerns, and the envisioned methodologies for implementing each intervention.  

  • A key expectation of these partners is to actively adapt the advisory document to effectively address the specific concerns and priorities of diverse stakeholder groups. This requires a proactive approach to gathering and integrating feedback from all relevant stakeholders, ensuring their voices are heard and their perspectives are considered in the ongoing evolution of the policy.
