Delhi EV Policy 2026 launched as report finds 45% of Indian homes unsafe for EV charging

Delhi has rolled out its EV Policy 2026 to accelerate electric vehicle adoption in the capital. However, a concurrent report highlights that 45% of Indian homes are deemed unsafe for EV charging, raising concerns about residential charging infrastructure readiness. The story was reported by News18.

Why it matters: The finding that nearly half of Indian homes lack safe electrical infrastructure for EV charging signals a major barrier for residential chargepoint deployment, and may redirect policy incentives and CPO strategies toward public and workplace charging solutions or home electrical upgrades.
