India primarily follows BIS standards aligned with global IEC norms. Key references include IS 17017 (based on IEC 61851) for conductive charging systems and IS 17017-25 for DC fast charging. For connectors, India adopts Type 2 (AC) and CCS2 / CHAdeMO (DC) for higher-power vehicles, while Bharat AC-001 and DC-001 remain relevant for low-voltage and early deployments.
Modern Level 2 AC chargers in India typically achieve 90–94% efficiency, while DC fast chargers reach 94–97%, depending on power electronics quality and grid conditions. Efficiency losses mainly occur during AC-DC conversion and thermal management, not in the vehicle battery itself.
DC fast chargers (30 kW–350 kW) are increasingly deployed along highways, logistics hubs, and urban fleets. Selection depends on vehicle mix (2-wheelers, 3-wheelers, passenger EVs), grid availability, and compliance with CCS2 or CHAdeMO standards.
India has piloted ethanol-powered generator-backed fast chargers to support EV charging in grid-constrained areas. These hybrid solutions combine ethanol gensets with battery buffering, enabling up to 150 kW DC output while reducing diesel dependence and emissions.
Priority states include California, Texas, Florida, New York, and Washington due to high EV adoption, dense urban travel, and interstate corridors. Midwest and Sun Belt states are also strategic for long-distance coverage, supporting national charging continuity.
