<h1>EV affordability driven by falling battery costs will boost adoption alongside biofuels and cycling infrastructure.</h1> Reduction in lithium ion battery costs is identified as the key factor lowering EV prices and promoting adoption, supported by domestic research into alternative battery chemistries and expanded manufacturing of two wheelers. The summary links cheaper batteries to environmental and economic goals-reducing transport pollution, cutting fuel imports and improving the trade balance-while complementary measures include biofuel production from agricultural waste and promotion of urban cycling through dedicated infrastructure.
