EV charging

EV charging infrastructure

Pioneers in EV charging infrastructure. We design, install, operate and maintain chargers for hosts, fleets and networks, adding battery storage where the connection is tight.

Sites

Where we install chargers

Illustrative; no sites are implied. Schematic, not to scale.

Hotels, resorts & highway stops

DC fast charging for travellers on NH44 and NH66, and AC for overnight guests.

Tourist, pilgrim & public sites

AC and light-EV points sized for visitors who stay an hour or more.

Hospitals & campuses

Staff, visitor and fleet charging within your premises, metered separately where it pays.

Apartments & builders

Tamil Nadu’s building rules require charging points in new buildings above a size threshold; we design them to share the supply.

Factories & offices

Workplace and fleet charging within your sanctioned load, scheduled around your processes.

Fuel stations

Safe clearances and approvals around fuel dispensers, designed in from the first drawing.

Charger types

Which charger for which vehicle

Match the charger to the vehicle and to how long it stays.

Battery buffer

Fast charging with a battery buffer

  1. Fill steadily

    The grid, or solar, charges the battery within your existing connection.

  2. Boost on demand

    When a vehicle plugs in, the charger draws on the grid and the battery together.

  3. Refill between sessions

    The battery recharges between sessions, ideally in cheaper hours.

Whether a buffer beats a bigger connection depends on charger use, your tariff and upstream costs, so we model both side by side.

Tamil Nadu’s EV tariff is cheapest from 9 am to 4 pm (TNERC Tariff Order No. 6 of 2025), so a battery can store daytime energy for evening charging.

Process

Steps in a charging project

Most delays come from the connection and the paperwork, so we start both on day one.

  1. Site survey

    Parking, cable routes, supply, battery space.

    Deliverable: Survey notes & photos

  2. Load & tariff study

    Sanctioned load, tariff category, charger mix.

    Deliverable: Connection options

  3. Design

    Protection, earthing, cabling, civil works.

    Deliverable: SLD & layout

  4. DISCOM application

    Connection or load-change application.

    Deliverable: Application file

  5. Installation

    Foundations, cabling, charger mounting.

    Deliverable: Installation records

  6. Commissioning & OCPP onboarding

    Safety tests, inspectorate clearance, software onboarding.

    Deliverable: Commissioning report

  7. O&M

    Monitoring, maintenance, repairs, records.

    Deliverable: Monthly report

Rules

Charging station rules

As of
  • Setting up a charging station is de-licensed: anyone can do it by following the Ministry of Power guidelines.

  • DISCOMs must connect within 3 to 30 days depending on the area (90 if the network needs extending) and offer LT connections up to 150 kW.

  • Service charges at public stations are capped until 31 March 2028 (AC ₹3–4, DC ₹11–13 per kWh, before GST) and must be displayed.

  • CEA safety rules ban adaptors and extension leads, require earth-continuity monitoring, and make owners keep test records for at least 7 years.

  • Tamil Nadu’s EV tariffs (LT-VII, HT-V) are cheapest from 9 am to 4 pm, and smart ToD meters are mandatory.

Public funding for chargers

In force · to 31 Mar 2028

PM E-DRIVE funds public charging on government-proposed sites until 31 March 2028:

  • Government premises with free public access: 100% of upstream infrastructure and chargers.
  • Public-sector sites such as railway, metro and bus stations, airports, toll plazas and public-sector fuel outlets: 80% of upstream, 70% of chargers.
  • Other locations, and battery swapping or charging stations: 80% of upstream.

Nodal agencies run the stations or pick operators by bidding, so private hosts usually can’t apply directly.

Questions about EV charging

No. It’s a de-licensed activity under the Ministry of Power’s 2024 guidelines; you need a DISCOM connection and the Electrical Inspectorate’s safety clearance.

Often, yes. Charging within HT premises may be billed at the premises’ own tariff, or you can take a separate EV service; we’ll work out which suits you.

Yes. We connect chargers over OCPP to the charging software you choose; roaming across apps runs through your network partner.

Yes, on the power side: site power, fire-safe enclosures and O&M, following the Ministry of Power’s January 2025 swapping guidelines. We don’t run a swapping brand.

A DC pillar needs a small plinth and clearances, with the vehicle within 5 m of the charging point; AC units can be wall-mounted. Basement and fuel-station sites need extra approvals.
