Accelerating adoption of zero-emission trucking
Financial Express Bengaluru|January 04, 2025
TRANSPORT SECTOR contributes 8.4% of total emissions in India, with freight transport, dominated by heavy-duty trucks, playing a major role. Trucks represent just 3% of vehicle fleet, yet emit 53% particulate matter. With truck sales projected to grow sixfold to 69 million by 2070-71, addressing freight-related emissions is critical.
CHRISTOPH WOLFF

Zero-emission trucking (ZET) took the spotlight at recent COP29, with initiatives such as the Global MoU on Zero-Emission Medium and Heavy-Duty Vehicles, and the Zero-Emission Vehicle Declaration.

India is a key player in the Global South, and with advancements in electric buses and initiatives like eFAST, it can spearhead the global transition to ZET.
