BHEL is extending its offering in the e-mobility segment and has equipped itself to foray into manufacturing of EV chargers, electric buses and related critical components
New Delhi: Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), the country’s largest power equipment manufacturer, today said it will set up a network of solar-based electric vehicle chargers (SEVC) over the entire 250 kilometers stretch on the Delhi-Chandigarh Highway.
The project is covered under the FAME scheme (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid) Electric Vehicles in India) of the Department of Heavy Industry (DHI).
BHEL’s scope of work in the project includes design, engineering, manufacturing, supply and installation of the EV charging stations along with a central monitoring system. Each SEVC charging station will be equipped with a rooftop solar power plant to supply green energy to fast and slow chargers planned to be installed at the location.
As part of its diversification initiative, BHEL has been expanding its footprints in the e-mobility business. Notably, the company has already installed DC chargers at Udyog Bhawan in New Delhi. BHEL is also executing another commercial order for installation of DC chargers across various locations in the country.
