NHEV E-Highways are India&#8217;s preparedness-driven economic lifeline, ensuring that the movement of essential goods never stops, whether during peacetime, lockdowns, or geopolitical oil crises impacting global supply chains,&#8221; said Abhijeet Sinha, Program Director, NHEV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sinha said India&#8217;s Electronic Highway vision extends beyond charging infrastructure and aims to create a connected and trusted mobility ecosystem capable of accelerating commercial EV adoption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;India&#8217;s E-Highway vision is not only about the charging infrastructure layer, but also about building a connected and trusted mobility ecosystem to gain the confidence of the commercial EV and freight transport sector. This electronic layer will play a critical role in improving driver safety, reducing accidents, enabling predictive risk detection and strengthening operational reliability for freight fleet operators and passengers alike,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added that technology partners such as Netradyne are helping strengthen the intelligence layer necessary to make the network operationally dependable, bankable and commercially viable at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Durgadutt Nedungadi, Senior Vice President, EMEA and APAC Business at Netradyne, said the collaboration reflects the growing role of artificial intelligence in the development of next-generation mobility infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Being part of NHEV&#8217;s Electronic Highway initiative reflects the scale at which AI-driven mobility infrastructure is evolving in India. Our role is to provide real-time intelligence that improves driver safety, fleet visibility and operational responsiveness across these E-Highways,&#8221; Nedungadi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;By enabling early detection of driver fatigue, unsafe behaviour and vehicle distress, we can help reduce road risk and make long-haul EV operations safer and more reliable,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the organisations, the initiative will also support policy development through real-world implementation and validation, contributing recommendations to the Group of Transport Experts (GTE) and aligning with broader government efforts to integrate transport, telecommunications and digital infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Staff WriterNew Delhi: AI-powered fleet safety and mobility technology company Netradyne has partnered with National Highways for Electric Vehicles (NHEV) to deploy intelligent safety and operational monitoring systems across India&#8217;s emerging electronic highway network, a move aimed at strengthening the country&#8217;s long-distance electric mobility ecosystem.
