        abstract = {An empirical study on the growth and genesis of charging stations for electric vehicles (EVs) in the Mumbai region would shed light on the burgeoning EV market and its supporting infrastructure in one of India's most populous and economically dynamic areas.
An increasing focus on climate change and the need to reduce reliance on fossil fuels are driving the transition to electric vehicles (EVs). Mumbai, India's largest metropolitan city, faces significant environmental challenges, including air pollution, due to its dependence on petroleum products. This has spurred interest in the widespread adoption of EVs as an effective solution for environmental mitigation and sustainable transportation. However, the successful uptake of EVs hinges on the availability of a robust and easily accessible network of charging stations.
The growth of EV charging infrastructure in Mumbai is currently a focus area for researchers and policymakers. Studies are exploring optimal locations for charging stations, considering factors like traffic patterns, demand congestion, travel distance, and integration with the existing electricity supply and transportation networks. Research highlights the importance of strategically deploying charging stations, especially in central areas and near high-demand locations, to alleviate range anxiety and improve EV usability.},
