That is why this research analyses the EV public charging station needs at present. Every city is on a path to becoming smarter as soon as possible. The government is taking several steps to make a city smart by less pollution, controlled air quality, and well public charging infrastructure. The fastest adoption of eco-friendly moves is pushed by the government but lack of charging infrastructure is one of the current issues that needs immediate solutions to protect the environment and non-renewable resources. The government is targeting only EVs till 2030 which is possible by promoting the EV sector, making policies, and reserving funds for public charging station development.
