ripple to tidal wave: norway is currently the world’s demonstration project for green transport solutions - battery power storage

A technological revolution took place today.
Transport of liquid hydrocarbons has been going on in the past 130.
This will change.
In the small country of Norway, there is an electric vehicle for every third new car sold, and the world's first electric ferry travels 34 times a day across the Norwegian fjord.
So we are at the forefront of this change.
There are only more than 5 million residents, and we are not very different in the big things plan.
But on the other hand, the biggest wave always starts with the smallest ripple.
In Norway, the wave is growing.
Now India can go to Norway to see how green transportation solutions work in practice.
India is a big country.
In every sense of the word.
In the next few years, India will surpass China and become the most populous country in the world.
With such a large population, many of India's future choices will also have a global impact on Norway.
If this wave will bring about a change in transportation, save our planet and create business opportunities for all, it will come down to a big country like India.
Norway is currently a demonstration project for global green transport solutions.
We have the highest penetration rate of electric vehicles in the world.
Nearly 40% of new cars sold are electric cars.
Infrastructure, technology and solutions are being developed, tested and evaluated in Norway.
Learn valuable lessons from studying customer behavior.
For example, fear of running out of battery power or mileage anxiety is highlighted as an obstacle for electric vehicles to absorb.
Although many drivers feel anxious at first, the fear soon subsided.
In fact, only 4% of Norwegian electric car drivers report battery runs out.
Businesses and governments from all over the world are looking for Norway to gain insight into how the start of a massive market for electric vehicles works in practice.
But how does Norway do that?
This is the result of targeted and stable transportation policies.
First of all, we have a clear goal of selling only zero.
Vehicles and buses will be discharged by 2025.
Secondly, we give tax exemption to electric vehicles and transfer the tax burden to internal combustion engine vehicles.
Third, we have invested in the electric vehicle infrastructure and built 8,755 charging stations-1 for every 21 electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles.
While the development of electric vehicles is receiving increasing attention, there is still little discussion about ocean and river transport.
Norway is a marine country with a long tradition of shipbuilding and maritime activities.
We have always been a global leader in promoting the improvement of shipping environmental standards.
The Norwegian shipbuilding industry and shipping industry are currently taking steps to develop a new group of eco-friendly vessels.
The new ship will use the same technology as the electric vehicle, but the battery size is the same as the storage container, or a combination of battery power and liquid natural gas (LNG)
Or other cleaners.
Burn fuel such as hydrogen.
At the moment, we have the world's first battery-powered ferry, which operates a passenger ferry route across Sognefjord, Norway.
The power consumed by MS amps for a single 6 km M is about Rs 400-equivalent to a cup of coffee at Starbucks, however, it is enough to transport 360 passengers and 120 cars.
LNG fuel vessels are an important option for further distances.
Norway has the world's largest LNG fleet.
Great environmental benefits compared to diesel
Fuel vessel-carbon dioxide emissions are reduced by 30%, NOx emissions are reduced by 85%, and there is absolutely no air pollution from particles.
The number of vehicles on Indian roads is expected to grow from 0. 16 billion in 2030 to 0. 55 billion.
This raises the question: are these cars driven on diesel or electric?
In order to add 0. 39 billion cars on the road, new infrastructure must be developed.
New gas station or charging station?
For India and the rest of the world, the two options are very different.
Of course, there are positive signs that India intends to go green in the future.
An ambitious goal has been set: 100% of new cars sold will be electric vehicles by 2030.
We think India should set a similar ambitious goal for their fleet.
You also have large rivers and canals in this country.
The government will focus on shipping goods on vessels of these inland waterways, rather than by truck on the road, which may bring great environmental benefits, in reducing local air pollution and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The Greening of India's transport sector will boost India's energy security by reducing reliance on imported oil.
India currently spends more than $0. 235 billion a day on oil imports.
Increasing the share of electric vehicles, especially in big cities, will also help reduce the deadly smog that hangs over many Indian cities every year.
According to the famous medical journal Lancet, more than 2.
5 million Indians die from toxic air every year.
While the wave of green transport solutions is becoming more and more popular in Norway, we need the influence of a big country like India to make it a wave.
Norway is keen to support India in this regard.
