The question is: How many are listening?
A Peek into the Recent Past
Let’s jog our memory a wee bit… It doesn’t take much effort because we are talking about the very recent past…
There we were, and probably still are – rushing from one chore to another, getting into our very own “Hop-on Hop-off ‘Desi’ Transport Service”, aka the Auto-rickshaw – quite a lifeline for our extremely busy urban lives! One hand clutching our bags, the other hand covering our nose, trying to block out those nasty fumes, unrestrainedly flowing out from all vehicles around us – including our own. If we had more hands, I’m sure we’d cover our ears too, to block out the annoyance of nerve-racking traffic sounds!
The cacophony and pollution of vehicles with internal combustion engines powered by fossil fuels, are indeed assaults on our ears, and attacks on our lungs. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), ambient air pollution accounts for an estimated 4.2 million premature deaths worldwide annually, with the majority linked to cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, and lung cancer. Noise pollution too, has detrimental effects on our physical and mental health. It can lead to annoyance, stress, sleep disturbances, hearing loss, and other health problems. Additionally, prolonged exposure to high levels of noise has been linked to cardiovascular issues such as hypertension and heart disease. Thus, noise and air pollution are not just nuisances. They are silent killers, eroding the quality of life and threatening human health.
Amidst the discord of traffic, we have unfortunately missed out on the simple symphony of nature's tranquillity.
Where Do We Stand at Present?
Mercifully, the arrival of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, is slowly changing all this. The wheel has been set in motion for reducing noise and air pollution in our country, and the world at large. Thanks to government policies and technological advancements, there has been a slow transition to electric vehicles in India's transportation sector.
This blog puts the spotlight on Indian three-wheelers comprising of passenger e-rickshaws and cargo e-three-wheelers, as they have significantly led the way. In CY , out of 10,78,279 three-wheelers (powered by petrol, CNG, LNG, and electricity) sold in India, e-three-wheelers accounted for 581,696 units i.e. a whopping 53.94% of total three-wheeler sales for the year. It’s encouraging to note that every second three-wheeler sale in India in CY was electric! Furthermore, e-three-wheeler buyers have topped the charts, accounting for 38% of Indian e-vehicle sales in FY . Sales showed a 66% year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth in CY, rising from 350,238 units in CY to over 581,000 units, as per the Government of India’s Vahan portal on 31st December .
This is indeed a happy victory for the battle against noise and air pollution, as electric vehicles significantly reduce both.
A Wishful Look into the Future
The transition from traditional fossil fuel-powered engines to electric ones, offers hope of potentially improving public health and the environment in our densely populated urban areas.
FY ’s record sales of over half-a-million e-three-wheelers, has fanned the flames of hope for transforming our polluted streets, through zero-emission transportation, and reduced noise pollution too. There is reason to believe that the three-wheeler robust double-digit growth will continue, thanks to consistent demand for passenger transportation, as well as end of supply chain operators for e-commerce applications, and food deliveries. Truth be told, individual motorists, as well as fleet owners are discovering that e-three-wheelers are proving to be a more affordable option than their gasoline counterparts. However, all other vehicle owners too, need to follow suit, if we are to once again hear the melodies of the earth, in pristine environs!
The Indian government's National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) aims at maximizing its EV fleet by , by providing incentives to manufacturers and buyers of EVs, including tax exemptions and subsidies. This renews hope of cleaner air, thanks to the zero tailpipe emissions of lithium-ion powered EVs; and holds out the tangible promise of lower noise pollution, as EV’s are operationally more silent. It will additionally halt the indiscriminate use of fast-depleting non-renewable fossil fuels which adversely affect earth’s bio-diversity. Together, we can make the future greener, cleaner, and easier on the ears of our children, grand-children and beyond.
Our actions of today will gift our posterity, the invaluable ticket to hear the symphony of life, in the serene silence of unpolluted air, and undisturbed serenity.

Energy storage systems, usually batteries, are essential for all-electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).
The following energy storage systems are used in all-electric vehicles, PHEVs, and HEVs.
Lithium-ion batteries are currently used in most portable consumer electronics such as cell phones and laptops because of their high energy per unit mass and volume relative to other electrical energy storage systems. They also have a high power-to-weight ratio, high energy efficiency, good high-temperature performance, long life, and low self-discharge. Most components of lithium-ion batteries can be recycled, but the cost of material recovery remains a challenge for the industry. Most of today's all-electric vehicles and PHEVs use lithium-ion batteries, though the exact chemistry often varies from that of consumer electronics batteries. Research and development are ongoing to reduce their relatively high cost, extend their useful life, use less cobalt, and address safety concerns in regard to various fault conditions.
Nickel-metal hydride batteries, used routinely in computer and medical equipment, offer reasonable specific energy and power capabilities. Nickel-metal hydride batteries have a much longer life cycle than lead-acid batteries and are safe and abuse-tolerant. These batteries have been widely used in HEVs. The main challenges with nickel-metal hydride batteries are their high cost, high self-discharge rate, heat generation at high temperatures, and the need to control hydrogen loss.
Lead-acid batteries can be designed to be high power and are inexpensive, safe, recyclable, and reliable. However, low specific energy, poor cold-temperature performance, and short calendar and lifecycle impede their use. Advanced high-power lead-acid batteries are being developed, but these batteries are only used in commercially available electric vehicles for ancillary loads. They are also used for stop-start functionality in internal combustion engine vehicles to eliminate idling during stops and reduce fuel consumption.
Ultracapacitors store energy in the interface between an electrode and an electrolyte when voltage is applied. Energy storage capacity increases as the electrolyte-electrode surface area increases. Although ultracapacitors have low energy density, they have very high power density, which means they can deliver high amounts of power in a short time. Ultracapacitors can provide vehicles with additional power during acceleration and hill climbing and help recover braking energy. They may also be useful as secondary energy-storage devices in electric vehicles because they help electrochemical batteries level load power.
Electric vehicles are relatively new to the U.S. auto market, so only a small number of them have approached the end of their useful lives. As electric vehicles become increasingly common, the battery recycling market may expand.
Studies have shown that an electric vehicle battery could have at least 70% of its initial capacity left at the end of its life if it has not failed or been damaged. The remaining capacity can be more than sufficient for most energy storage applications, and the battery can continue to work for another 10 years or more. Many studies have concluded that end-of-life electric vehicle batteries are technically feasible for second-use applications such as stationary grid and backup power applications. Although there are viable business models for high-value, small, and niche applications for second-use batteries (i.e., powering forklifts and portable devices, replacing diesel backup generators, acting as after-market replacement packs for electric vehicles), the economic viability of installing second-life batteries is still evolving. Costs associated with the purchase price of end-of-life batteries include transportation, storage, sorting and testing, remanufacturing, reassembly and repurposing, integration into battery energy storage systems, certification, and installation.
Widespread battery recycling would help keep hazardous materials from entering the waste stream, both at the end of a battery's useful life and during its production. The U.S. Department of Energy is also supporting the Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling Prize to develop and demonstrate profitable solutions for collecting, sorting, storing, and transporting spent and discarded lithium-ion batteries for eventual recycling and materials recovery. After collection of spent batteries, the material recovery from recycling would also reintroduce critical materials back into the supply chain and increase the domestic sources for such materials. Work is now underway to develop battery recycling processes that minimize the life cycle impacts of using lithium-ion and other kinds of batteries in vehicles. But not all recycling processes are the same, and different methods of separation are required for material recovery.
To recover valuable materials from lithium-ion batteries, there are three major technologies currently in different stages of commercialization: smelting (pyrometallurgy), chemical leaching (hydrometallurgy), and direct recycling. In addition to these methods, mechanical treatment through disassembly, crushing, shredding, and separation to create what is called black mass is a major element of any recycling technology.
Separating the different kinds of battery materials is often a stumbling block in recovering high-value materials. Therefore, battery design that considers disassembly and recycling is important for the sustainability of electric vehicles. Standardizing batteries, materials, and cell design would also make recycling easier and more cost-effective.
