Rajasthan State Gas Explores LNG And EV Opportunities
RSG is considering development of LNG supply chains, small scale regasification facilities and last mile distribution that could serve industrial and transport customers. Concurrently the company is studying options to support electric vehicle adoption through charging infrastructure deployment, fleet conversion services and partnerships with vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators. The approach emphasises phased implementation to align capital expenditure with demand growth. Stakeholder engagement is planned to gather industry feedback and refine technical requirements before committing resources.
The company intends to engage with state and central regulators and potential private partners to clarify policy incentives and access funding mechanisms. Financial planning will prioritise projects with clear commercial viability while allowing scope for pilot projects to test technical and operational assumptions. Attention will be given to operational safety, fuel quality standards and interoperability of charging solutions. Risk assessments and compliance reviews will form part of the preparatory work to ensure regulatory alignment.
If pursued at scale, the initiatives could contribute to reduced carbon intensity of transport, greater fuel choice for consumers and enhanced resilience of fuel supply chains. Job creation in construction, operations and maintenance and opportunities for local suppliers are anticipated as project timelines advance. Next steps include feasibility studies, stakeholder consultations and detailed project designs ahead of implementation. Timelines will be calibrated to match market absorption and to allow for scaling of successful pilots across regions.
