Karnataka Energy Minister K J George on Feb 14 unveiled the Clean Mobility Policy 2025-2030 during Invest Karnataka 2025.
The policy aims to position Karnataka as Asia’s top clean mobility hub while accelerating the state’s transition to a sustainable, future-ready transportation ecosystem, according to an official statement.
The policy targets investments of₹50,000 crore across the clean mobility value chain, with a vision to generate one lakh new jobs in the sector.
It offers subsidies of up to 25% on total invested capex across Karnataka.
Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural regions are eligible for a 20 per cent capex subsidy.
Currently, the state has 5,403 electric vehicle charging stations, and the policy aims to install an additional 2,600 stations through public-private partnerships.
The policy also focuses on developing clean mobility clusters by establishing three world-class mobility hubs in Gauribidanur, Dharwad, and Harohalli.
Additionally, it introduces capital subsidies for setting up fast-charging stations, battery-swapping networks, and hydrogen fueling stations to ensure a reliable clean energy network across the state.
The government stated that it will promote collaborations with global institutions and expand EV-focused training programs in industrial training institutes, polytechnics and universities to build a specialized workforce for the clean mobility industry.
Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar, Karnataka Minister for Large and Medium Industries M B Patil and Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor were present on the occasion.
