An EV charger made available at a kirana store, OMG!!! It can be the next green revolution.
My dose of positivity every Sunday, it makes me hopeful of a better future, better India...as always amazing job.
However electric energy 70% comes front coal , unless we charge our vehicle through our solar panels at home , it won't help ...the environment ⭐
The only way forward is nuclear .solar panels are expensive and it's manufacturing I.e to get about 99% Si purity requires you to consume more carbon.
Fuel after going through all the processes has 33 % efficiency.
Battery vehicles using thermal power
has more than double efficiency of that
I see nuclear as challenge given that uranium comes from outside and have foreign policy implications and challenges.
The best way can be thorium nuclear plants .
I don't know what happened to india ,even have largest deposit and prolonged research we could not capitalise technology for use.
China did it!
Very true indeed
We need better public transport infrastructure and efficient technologies to cut down our emissions. Small steps like this can inspire others too ✌️.
@@Abk367 you are right and wrong both because future is not in nuclear fission but in nuclear fusion
Absolute genius seen in the Charzer concept! 🙏👌🏽
Amazing Video! Great progress for the environment! I hope more countries will start as well!
Excellent This is real retrofit. The much needed for India
The change over
Hybrid make over
The revolution bussiness set up
Convertion of things
Building ways to new path
More about eco u r good amazing
This is kind of news which we need more. Keep up the good work team
Nice step towards greener future, but still India has to go a long way as most of the electricity is made from coal currently.
Using of electrical vehicles is more Binifits rather then fuel vehicles.
Nice work by Rakesh. Changing the existing petrol vehicles to Hybrid electric vehicle. Superb thought
As long as the energy that is used to charge the electric vehicles are not sourced from renewable sources then it does not really make an impact in the broader view
Expand this quickly man 🥱
connected charger. 6:03 compared to petrol vehicle electric vehicle is better. So you can save Time also...
What?
If you have conventional scooter or bike, it may not be beneficial as much as you think to buy EV based on the fact that manufacturing is highest contributor for emissions. The better thing might be to use namma metro or rent EV. And if you are going to travel once in a week or so, might as well keep on using existing bike or scooter. This is based on few videos I have come across also tv series like "Adam Ruins Everything".
It would be much better though if there was conversion kit but there doesn't seem to be one, at least not available readily.
Suuuperb
Very informative video.
Please start in chennai also
EV's are not expensive or luxury. Its petrol which is expensive and luxury now.
Yeh, people don't calculate the price in terms of fuel the vehicle will take. EV's are atleast 10-20 % cheaper, when price of fuel is added
Charger network in all over India should be established at every gali and chaurasta not limited to Bangalore only it should be everywhere ASAP to tackle the climate change and human diseases from the pollution
The only innovation needed right now is the Battery capacity that's where the whole future stands. The range needs to be atleast 150kms for scooties and 450 for cars.
Charzer is very brilliant idea. In the day time it will be a game changer but in the night when all the shops are closed its a concern (if those chargers are made useable in night then it is fine as it costs 3k people might try to steal it if is not protected).
Now the electric vehicles have started to give 100+ km range so daily commute within city is a breeze with less tension.
Hybrid vehicle concept is brilliant too. If with petrol we get a range of 40-50km in case of emergency then it is just too good
Hope Govt doesn't bring the Electricity prices to the level of Petrol and diesel to make up for the loss in taxes and profits!
Petrol diesel can be used,because of newly produced Xtra green diesel, XP 95 petrol,M15 gasoline,E 20 gasoline etc,which gives less carbon emitions and the black smog does not appear and the combustion is better...
But there is not being properly implemented to all over india,only in a few parts of india!!???
And the vehicles should have to be enabled with E20 fuel and M15 gasoline!!!
Very informative video. I think EV scooters are definitely the future. Also, noise pollution affects our health.
Is Electric vehicle really environment friendly.. when 70% of electricity produced by coal
Ok so your logic is that if electricity made by coal is not environment friendly let me tell you we made electric by coal which is genrate CO2 emissions is correct but if we use electric vehicles it will reduse carbon emissions (not finishing) but it will help the nature to cope up with climate change and later we have also switch to solar energy for electric generation we need to take right path to achieve CO2 emissions free world and electrical vehicle are the first right step in this direction
@@donupadhyay1555 I know that... my concern is present status electricity production... speeding up electricity production by Renewable energy sources should be main concern for government.
@@RahulKumar-uj7or it IS govt's concern....today energy from renewables stand at just less than 40% in India. It's 136GW. By 2030, we'll have 450GW energy coming from just renewables. India is the 3rd largest renewable energy producer in the world. Man why doesn't anyone read news about the govt's work and efficiency🤦♂️.
@@yashancientbeast i am not against electric vehicle... I am talking about present situation and trying to create awareness.
@@RahulKumar-uj7or i didn't say anywhere that you're against evs. I just in a way said that you are not aware of the govt's work and that you should read about it.
As correctly said in the video, I think the problem in the future will be to identify alternative renewable energy source which has more or atleast the same abundance, economical viability and efficiency as like coal and thermal power station. Until and unless we will be using electricity in EV vehicles from coal-powered thermal stations, it cannot be considered as eco-friendly.
The government has alternative solutions like Hydrogen Fuel and short term solutions like flex engines with Ethanol based fuel.
@@RishiKumarPS Yes,using H2 as a fuel is eco-friendly but again the major source of H2 production is not sustainable.
Nuclear is the only way forward
@@deepghosh7626 Yes definitely in future but it can never be via nuclear fission.
Zero emission but a lot of pollution.
Don’t forget to consider the environmental impact when the batteries are produced, the energy required to mine the Lithium is massive.
More energy required to pump dirty oil
We have to take first step. We can't wait for things to become perfect
@@sudarshan3965 the correct step Would be to
Improve the already existing technology.
Improve the efficiency of the IC engine so that the emission is lower.
Oil is an amazing product, we should embrace it!
Good work
Eagerly waiting for "Your Morning Fix" Please relaunch it.
all because of BJP so much development, not a single corruption charge like 2g scam, commonwealth scam etc
We daily commuters desperately need you. These fuel prices are now ridiculous.
Petrol, diesel,gas prices going up daily and coal stock is going empty what to do with charging vehicle
For god's sake please, please try to look at the problem from a systems design perspective. Though you can't see the smoke coming out of the electric vehicle, it is still causing more pollution in manufacturing the batteries, charging the batteries. True innovation is required at different levels. 52.6% of electricity in India gets generated via coal plants, which reaches the citie's grid and then your home. Lithium, lead, cadmium are the common materials used in manufacturing batteries that become toxic for disposal after usage. Unless and until we address these problems and focus on these most fundamental issues, we can't develop genuinely green technology. So please understand the broader picture and don't get carried away on the bandwagon.
true.
But its the matter of Chicken and egg game and question raises who is first. Let people like Syed or Varsha be first. If we keep on saying coal or something we will be just sitting.
Petrol has to let go and from now on alternate process to be thought.
your narrator said diesel two wheelers... not very inspiring....there are no diesel two wheelers... need to improve a lot ...do good research ... though the discussion was good. best of luck
Can we cover a 200km intercity journey by EV?
I feel very bad at very signal i was waiting at that unnecessarily fuel is burning
Hmm EV are bit costly but good... unless it's time to change the battery. Hope we had good electric tram service.
Not yet talking about loadsheddings & burn by sudden thunderstorms these days.
First we need to DELETE BBMP inorder to save Bangalore.
comedy is India's majority 87% electricity comes from coal the dirtiest pollutant of air. 😅 petrol is the essential just saying and 1.5l for ather bike not avail for middle class.
Elecric vechicles cost a lot fkk
We are purchasing EVs, but the
What about coal shortage looming over electricity of country 👎
Cost of EV vehicals is because of Gulf nation , it provide employment to thousand of india , in return india buy raw crude oil from gulf country
why would the cost of crude oil have an impact on electric vehicles? doesn't make sense! can you pls explain?
Crud oil producing country will definately make a impact on the EV vechical price
@@niranjan3791 nah both are different things extracted from different places. They don't have any significant impact on battery prices.

Bangalore lost its Garden City tag many years ago.
Stop calling Bengaluru "garden city"
why...thats its name
That's your take away from this video? Such a pity.
Jealous Telugu boy, go fix your sewage.
Yes you are correct, garden City is chandigarh 🥰
JUST WAIT UNTILL THE GOVERMENT DECIDES TO RAISE THE
“electricity charges”
😅
Now Bengaluru is garbage City no more called as garden City
Ceo looks like Biswa.
