Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) has joined forces with Trinity Cleantech Private Limited (TCPL) to deploy dedicated fast charging points for 2-wheelers and 3-wheelers. The agreement, signed for an initial three years and extendable for an additional two years, focuses on the installation of DC fast charging stations at BPCL energy stations across major cities in Uttar Pradesh.

In an official statement, BPCL emphasised the alliance’s goal to drive the adoption of electric two-wheelers (e2Ws) and electric three-wheelers (e3Ws) through the establishment of dedicated direct current (DC) fast charging points across the state.

The comprehensive agreement, inked by BPCL and TCPL, paves the way for the installation of DC fast charging stations in key cities like Kanpur, Lucknow, Ayodhya, Gorakhpur, Ghaziabad, Noida, Saharanpur, and Agra. The initiative aims to set up charging stations at BPCL outlets adhering to stringent safety standards and Petroleum & Explosives Safety Organization (PESO) norms.

The initial milestone of this collaboration will witness TCPL commencing installations in Ayodhya at BPCL energy stations, coinciding with the launch of electric auto-rickshaws for the temple inauguration event, attended by the Prime Minister of India.

Rahul Tandon, CGM (Marketing, Retail) at BPCL, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “BPCL is taking another step for the future of sustainable mobility. The pooling of resources in the public and private sectors to create necessary infrastructure is a great way to promote electric mobility.”

Raj Kumar Medimi, CEO of TCPL, highlighted the significance of the collaboration, stating, “This is a milestone for Trinity Cleantech Private Limited as we get access to BPCL’s wide network of petrol pumps across the country. This will help us set up DC Fast Charging.”
