Charger on Wheels: Tackling Urban Charging Challenges
Anil Kumar, Founder of Charger on Wheels, highlighted the significance of mobile EV charging:
“With limited grid availability in urban India and fire safety norms restricting basement chargers, our mobile vans tap a significant opportunity to enhance the EV charging experience.”
Charger on Wheels focuses on on-demand mobile EV charging with DC fast chargers, supporting real-time booking and tracking. The startup has already partnered with leading developers to offer residential charging services in urban and semi-urban areas.
Impact on the EV Ecosystem
The initiative addresses one of the major barriers to EV adoption — convenient access to charging infrastructure. By deploying mobile chargers, EV owners can overcome limitations of grid availability and safety restrictions, especially in high-density urban environments.
With Exicom’s technology expertise and Charger on Wheels’ innovative mobile solution, this partnership is poised to strengthen EV infrastructure, accelerate adoption, and improve the overall charging experience for users across India.
