National Electric Vehicle Policy
The National Electric Vehicle Policy aims to transition 30% of all new vehicles — imported and locally manufactured — in Pakistan to electric power by 2030 and 90% of New Sales by 2040. The Policy also describes the different incentives for the following transport options: incentives for New Cars; incentives for Two and Three Wheelers/ Low Speed Electric Cars; incentives for Buses; incentives for Trucks; incentives for Setting up EV Manufacturing Units; incentives for EV Components and Modules Manufacturing; incentives for Charging Infrastructure and Battery Swapping Stations. These incentives may consist of tax rates exemptions/reduction and interest rates reduction on loans…

Efficient Grid-Interactive Buildings in India
Status and opportunities This report assesses the opportunities for efficient grid-interactive buildings (EGIBs) to support India’s clean energy transition. EGIBs unite energy efficiency, smart digital technologies and demand-side flexibility, allowing them to optimise energy use, shift or reduce peak demand and better align consumption with renewable energy generation.The buildings sector is central to clean energy transitions in a context where rapidly increasing electricity demand is driven by cooling and appliance use, and the share of variable renewable energy in electricity generation is continuously growing. Without targeted action, unmanaged peak loads and variable supply could jeopardise grid…

Electric vehicle import tariff and quotas
In 2023, Brazil enacted import tariffs and import quotas for the importation of hybrid vehicles, plug-in hybrids, electric vehicles, and electric trucks.Import rates and quotas, which gradually decrease over time, vary depending on the type of vehicle. For example, vehicles under under a 2.07 MJ/km consumption performance are exempted from tariffs within a quota initially set at US 130 million units in January 2024, which gradually decreases to US 43 million in 2026. Other types of vehicles, such as dismantled cars, are subject to an import tariff that will increase annually.

Green Deal on Electric Transport 2016-2020 (Green Deal 198)
…be Battery Electric Vehicles.
To achieve these high-level targets, the strategy includes the following goals:
1. Improving and expanding the charging infrastructure for EVs. This mainly involves:
the realisation of a sound business case - in cooperation with The Netherlands Knowledge Platform for Public Charging Infrastructure (NKL);
making the most of the Funding Green Deal public charging infrastructure and for monitoring progress;
formulating a shared vision about the future of the smart charging infrastructure, by managing the balancing and/or congestion of the grid, using electric cars for energy storage.
2. Improving the storage capacity of electric vehicles in relation… -
