Tata Power partners HPCL for EV infra

Tata Power partnered with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL) for end-to-end EV charging solutions at HPCL fueling stations. With a network spread across multiple cities and in close proximity to major highways, Tata Power aims for a deeper penetration. It already owns an expansive network of over 500 public chargers in 100 plus cities covering petrol pumps, metro stations, shopping malls, theatres and highways. Known to be present across all segments of the EV eco-system – public charging, captive charging, home, workplace charging and ultra-rapid charging for buses, the move aims to address range anxiety with the network expansion. The partnership is expected to play a crucial role in encouraging EV sales and encouraging interstate travel beyond just city limits.
