A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed to jointly set up fast-charging stations at BPCL outlets, supporting India's green mobility mission.

This collaboration will leverage BPCL鈥檚 vast fuel station network and MEAL鈥檚 expertise in electric mobility to offer seamless and accessible EV charging for customers.

The partnership underscores the growing momentum behind public-private collaborations to develop a strong EV ecosystem in India. It also reflects the shared commitment to reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable transportation solutions across urban and intercity routes.

With this alliance, both companies are paving the way for a cleaner and more connected mobility future.
