Magenta Power, a pioneer in Renewable energy solutions and EV charging infrastructure space in India, adds another feather in its cap by installing EV Charging station “ChargeGrid” at the HPCL staff colony (HP Nagar East Housing Complex) in Chembur, Mumbai.
HP Nagar East Housing Complex in Chembur, Mumbai is a Platinum rated residential complex and is the first PSU Colony across the nation to be certified as a green colony by Indian Green Building Council (IGBC). The colony has undertaken various sustainability development initiatives like Rooftop Solar Power Plant, Solar Water Heaters, Rain Water Harvesting, Organic Waste Converter, Energy Efficient Lighting etc. As a further commitment towards the Go Green and zero emission initiative, the colony has installed EV charging station within its premises in collaboration with Magenta Power.
The charging station shall be connected and operated via Magenta’s ‘ChargeGrid App’ which shall allow cashless transactions and remote monitoring for the EV users. ChargeGrid App provides an integrated platform for viewing network of charging stations.
The charger installed by Magenta Power shall have the ability to charge up to 3 electric vehicles at a time. It comes with an easy to use built-in touchscreen feature so the users can conveniently charge without much hassle. The idea is to make charging experience as seamless as possible.
Speaking on the new installation, Mr. Maxson Lewis, Director – Magenta Power says, “At Magenta, we are fully committed to power our future in an environmentally sustainable way. We are elated to be associated with an integrated Oil & Gas company like HPCL for promoting the e-mobility initiative. This association will help us to scale our EV infrastructure on pan India basis as well as provide our customers with value added services in the e-mobility space. We envision this as a stepping stone to encourage users to opt for EV Vehicles in a hassle free manner and do their bit for Mother earth”.
Charge Grid shall be open to all the HPCL colony residents, who can charge their electric cars anytime safely & conveniently using the ChargeGrid chargers. The chargers shall also be used in the colony for charging the Mahindra e-supro passenger vehicles which the colony has recently acquired for using as shuttle service for their residents.
Going forward, Magenta is partnering with HPCL to establish suitable charging infrastructure for EVs at various other locations in India.
