Tata Power, one of India’s largest integrated power companies
and providers of electric vehicle charging solutions becomes the first EV Charging
solutions provider to power 10 crore (100 million) green kilometers spanning public, semipublic, bus/fleet and
home charger segments across India. This milestone achievement
underscores Tata Power's pivotal role in promoting sustainable mobility solutions
nationwide
India's vision for sustainable transportation and the government's push for e-mobility
through schemes such as FAME and the National Electric Mobility Mission aims to ensure
that 30 percent of all vehicle sales in the country are electric by 2030. Recognizing the
pivotal role of robust EV charging infrastructure in this transition, Tata Power has expanded
its network under the name of EZ Charge (read
easy) to over 86,000 home chargers, 5,300+
public, semi-public, and fleet charging points, along with 850+ bus charging stations
across 530 cities and towns. These chargers have been strategically deployed at diverse
and accessible locations such as highways, hotels, malls, hospitals, offices, residential
complexes, etc. This concerted effort has been instrumental in facilitating the exponential
growth of electric mobility in India.
According to an industry estimate, India is expected to reach annual sales of 1 crore
electric vehicles by 2030. Tata Power, with its presence across the country, stands at the
forefront of this transformative journey.
With a surge in demand for electric vehicles and an EV charging infrastructure, Tata Power
is also ensuring tech-enabled customer-centric solutions such as the RFID card that
enables EV users to tap.charge.go by making
wireless payments.
Tata Power has received the prestigious 'Shoonya Infrastructure Champion' accolade for
our unwavering dedication to zero-emission mobility. This recognition was recently
bestowed upon the company during the 2nd Annual Shoonya Forum in New Delhi.
Launched in 2021 by NITI Aayog, the Shoonya – Zero Pollution Mobility campaign has
fostered crucial collaborations, including with MyGov, the Government of India's citizen
engagement platform, and approximately 200 industry partners. These partnerships,
spanning e-commerce and food delivery firms, ride-hailing services, vehicle
manufacturers, fleet aggregators, infrastructure providers, and financiers, are
instrumental in shaping the landscape of cleaner mobility within the electric vehicle (EV)
ecosystem.
