Hero MotoCorp Ltd. is teaming with public sector giant Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. to set up charging infrastructure for two-wheeled electric vehicles (EVs) across India. This move has now made Hero MotoCorp the first automotive OEM to collaborate with the leading PSU to establish a charging infrastructure. "The partnership with BPCL, which is already at the forefront of customer energy solutions, will be beneficial for both the EV segment and customers. This collaboration will also unlock opportunities for asset allocation and expansion in the future," said Hero MotoCorp CMD Pawan Munjal.
The two entities will commence with establishing a substantial charging infrastructure at the existing nationwide energy station network and thereafter may widen the collaboration to generate more synergies within the EV ecosystem. In the first phase, Hero MotoCorp will set up charging stations across nine cities starting with Delhi and Bengaluru. Each charging station will feature multiple charging points including DC and AC chargers and will be open for use to all two-wheeler electric vehicles.
"Our alliance with Hero MotoCorp, global leader in the two-wheeler industry and with a fine penchant for innovation, is therefore an extremely strategic step towards ushering in an era of best-in-class EV charging solutions for our customers in our Energy Stations and an exciting future of innovative solutions in the EV sector," said BPCL CMD Arun Kumar Singh.
