GRAP Policy

India’s commitment to clean air extends beyond its borders. The Gravel, Dust, and Road Openings Policy (GRAP) tackles dust pollution with stringent construction site norms and dust mitigation measures. This aligns with the government’s broader vision of environmental stewardship, showcasing its dedication to international environmental agreements. This agreement gives a true reflection of government intentions which have been leading the promotion of a clean environment and inducing social and behavioural changes in the population to adopt cleaner modes of transportation.

The air we breathe is now a battlefield where innovation and policy come together, not a luxury. Individual decisions and government actions are increasingly shifting the balance in favour of a cleaner future. Even if there are still issues with price and battery technology, there is hope because of the government’s persistent commitment to electric transportation. We can defeat the smog demons one silent EV trip at a time and enter a vibrant new world where pure air is king.

One of the key ways in which private businesses can engineer that change is by providing public charging stations. Everyone wins. Drivers get faster off-road charging speeds than Level 1 can supply, while businesses can capitalize on both tax credits and fresh revenue opportunities. To put that in context, we need to explore the cost of charging an electric car at a public charging station, and see how businesses can reduce EV charging station costs.
