What the paper says

Purpose This study aims to explore the entrepreneurial opportunities and challenges in the electric vehicle (EV) sector, with a specific focus on battery technology and charging infrastructure. By integrating bibliometric analysis with qualitative insights, it aims to identify key research trends, market dynamics, and regulatory influences shaping the EV ecosystem. Design/methodology/approach A multiphase research methodology was adopted. The first phase involved bibliometric analysis using the Scopus database to map global research trends in EV charging infrastructure and battery technology. The second phase included in-depth qualitative interviews with 15 EV entrepreneurs in Delhi National Capital Region to analyze their perspectives on business challenges, technological advancements and policy interventions. Findings The study identifies critical factors influencing EV business viability, including charging infrastructure development, fast-charging optimization and integrating renewable energy sources. While government incentives and market demand create substantial business opportunities, financial constraints, regulatory uncertainties and infrastructure gaps pose significant challenges. The thematic analysis highlights key entrepreneurial traits, business strategies and sustainability considerations in the evolving EV market. Practical implications The study underscores the need for targeted investments in charging infrastructure, financial support systems and policy reforms to enhance EV adoption. Entrepreneurs must leverage innovation and strategic partnerships to effectively navigate market competition and regulatory shifts. Originality/value By integrating bibliometric analysis with qualitative industry insights, this study fills a gap in the literature on EV entrepreneurship. It provides actionable recommendations for policymakers, entrepreneurs and researchers to accelerate sustainable mobility solutions while fostering innovation and investment in EV infrastructure.
