New Delhi: Vice-chairperson of the Dialogue and Development Commission of Delhi Jasmine Shah on Thursday inaugurated a battery-swapping station in north Delhi’s Azadpur.
The station has been established by discom Tata Power-DDL in partnership with SUN Mobility and is set to be the first in a network of stations to be set up across north and northwest Delhi to provide charging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs).
“It is heartening to see that the Delhi EV policy has generated a lot of enthusiasm among entrepreneurs and fleet operators who are transitioning to EVs,” Shah said.
Ganesh Srinivasan, CEO, Tata Power-DDL said, “Tata Power-DDL is happy to join hands with SUN Mobility for setting up a network of battery swap points. We are committed to a clean and pollution-free Delhi and believe we can power the ‘Switch Delhi’ campaign in a big way.”
Two and three-wheelers can swap batteries at such stations within minutes to get limitless range. The battery swapping station at Azadpur can provide 336 swaps in a day.
