Extending its support and expertise to set up well laid-out standardize electric vehicle charging infrastructure all across the country, Okaya has joined hands with Charging Interface Initiative (CharIN E.V.), an open coalition of world-class firms within the electric vehicle (EV) industry. The move is aimed at supporting the Combined Charging System (CCS) as a global standard for EV charging with aim to enhance charging experience and promote electric mobility in the country. These include Combined Charging solution (CCS)- CharIN and CHAdeMO, a quick charging standard for electric vehicles. While Okaya enjoys early mover advantage in this segment, it has efficiently consolidated its actionable in a formidable way by providing EV Chargers compatible with all internationally accepted standards.  Okaya’s move to joining forces with CharIN E.V. also reaffirms its commitment to boost the EV Charging infrastructure in line with the Government of India’s vision to achieve maximum electrical mobility by 2030. As per the directives issued by Government Of India, all the two wheelers and three wheelers should be running on electricity by 2024 while 30% four-wheelers and public transport should be running on electricity by 2030. Hence all the OEM’s are working in this direction to achieve this national objective and for this the government is also extending support by providing subsidies to promote EVs in commercial vehicle category. In view of the government’s laid out road map, a fresh impetus is being given to this mission, under which the first priority is the establishment of world-class EV Charging points, Charging Stations and Battery Swapping Stations.
