Nepal is gradually upscaling the power generation and with this increase, efficient energy consumption is significant to contribute to the overall economic growth. Electric mobility in this backdrop can be an ideal sector to increase domestic energy consumption and step in toward environmental sustainability.

The organizer strongly believes that the EV Expo will reach out to an extended mass to enhance public consciousness in regard to an electric vehicle, their usage and their benefits.
