Centre Aims 22,000 EV Chargers At Petrol Pumps In India

In order to improve EV charging infrastructure to fast-track adoption of electric vehicles in India, the Centre is planning to install up to 70,000 EV chargers across the country in the next few years. The Centre said that work is already underway to install these EV charging stations at various petrol pumps across India. Oil companies like Indian Oil Corporation and Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited have already pledged to use their outlets to set up 17,000 EV charging centres in the next few years. Union heavy industries secretary Arun Goel said the Indian government has sanctioned 5,000 electric vehicle (EV) chargers under FAME II across 65 cities.
