The white paper presents one of the most comprehensive assessments of the trucking ecosystem’s readiness for a zero-emission transition. As India advances toward its clean mobility goals, the survey captures insights directly from fleet operators – the backbone of the logistics sector – to understand their challenges, expectations, and aspirations.
Drawing on responses from over 220 fleet operators across multiple states, the report explores perspectives on battery electric trucks (BETs), operational challenges, financing barriers, workforce reskilling, and charging infrastructure needs. It highlights both the optimism and apprehension shaping the transition to Zero-Emission Trucks (ZETs), while bringing forward the often-overlooked voices of small and medium fleet operators.
By translating operator experiences into actionable recommendations, the report outlines policy, financial, and ecosystem interventions required to enable an equitable and confident shift toward cleaner freight movement in India.
