Item ENERGY FORECASTING AND IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN NEPAL(I.O.E. Pulchowk Campus, 2023-10) KARN, SUBIRThe transportation sector in Nepal is heavily reliant on imported fossil fuels, which is costly and polluting. The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is likely to put unnecessary stress on the existing electrical infrastructure.
