🔋 EVs need electricity.
⚡ Electricity still relies heavily on thermal power.
🌞 Solar & wind are growing, but remain intermittent.
🔋 BESS isn’t yet ready to replace nationwide 24/7 baseload.
EVs can cut oil imports and urban pollution, but India cannot simply switch off coal overnight.
Decarbonization is an engineering marathon—not an overnight switch.
