Ministry of Heavy Industries (MHI) had invited proposals from Government Organisations/Public Sector Undertakings (PSU) (State/Central)/ Government DISCOMs/ Oil Public Sector Undertakings and similar other Public/Private entities to build and operate Public Electric Vehicle charging infrastructure on expressways and national highways under FAME India Scheme Phase-II, wherein Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) consortium with Convergence Energy Services Ltd (a subsidiary of EESL) has been awarded the work for setting up of EV charging stations along 16 NH/Expressways.

In order to facilitate EESL in the above prospect, NHAI has signed an MOU with EESL. As per this MoU, NHAI shall provide land near the toll plazas and its buildings for installation of electric vehicle charging stations based on revenue sharing model. The land for the same shall be provided to EESL at a no-cost basis for duration as decided by NHAI. This would not only assist in promoting clean/green energy and conserving the environment but could also be a source of revenue for NHAI.

This information was given by Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari in a written reply in the Lok Sabha today.
