Shell Charging

Energy giant Shell plans to set up over 10,000 EV charging points across India by 2030 as it joins the electric mobility bandwagon to cut vehicular emissions. The company launched its first EV chargers in India, for the four-wheeler and two-wheeler segments in Bengaluru on Thursday (15th September 2022).

In a statement, the company stated that India is the first market for Shell to launch chargers for two-wheelers. It said. "The company plans to set up more than 10,000 charging points across India by 2030 and aims to provide safe, green, and integrated mobility solutions to its customers through the Shell Recharge Stations."

As per the statement, in the first phase of its launch, Shell plans to set up charging stations in Bengaluru across its fuel stations. Additionally, the company has plans to expand its EV charging infrastructure beyond its existing retail markets of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Telangana, Assam and Andhra Pradesh. Shell will provide customised charging solutions at on-the-go locations such as Shell fuel stations, standalone EV hubs, home charging and destination locations, the statement said.

Shell joins likes of Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) and Reliance-bp in setting up EV charging infrastructure to boost EV usage.

The statement further noted that for on-the-go and standalone electric vehicle hubs, the company will deploy 100 kilowatts (KW) and above direct-current (DC) fast chargers to enable fast charging and the lowest possible dwell time and the customers will be able to operate these chargers through the 'Shell Recharge India app', available on both Android and iOS operating systems.

Sanjay Varkey, Director, Shell Mobility, India said, “The Shell Recharge proposition is based on unique insights that we picked up in our research and global experience. This enables us to provide safe, green, and integrated mobility solutions to our customers."
