The agreement is notable for its focus on coverage of highways in Bihar, Uttarakhand and UP as the EV buyers in the states are cautious and find lack of charging stations while on the move as a big deterrent. The partnership with HPCL is expected to play a strong role in encouraging EV owners to charge their vehicles along various petrol pumps. The company is present across various segments of the EV eco-system – public charging, captive charging, home, workplace charging and ultra-rapid chargers for buses.

EVIT has been providing EV charging solutions to multiple clients in India since its inception and started a journey with public sector company EESL in its first ever tender in India for 10,000 EVs in the year 2017. In March, EVIT also launched its mobile application EVI Grid. The EVI Grid is a personalized mobile app that enables its users to find the nearby compatible EV charging point for electric vehicles. It can be downloaded by Android users from Google Play Store.
