NEW DELHI: Making the electric vehicle charging ecosystem greener, power discoms have started integrating rooftop solar chargers with them to create hybrid facilities.
Power discom BSES has set up two solar EV charging stations at South Extension-II and Bhikaji Cama Place, while five such facilities are likely to be launched soon. These stations cater to two-, three- and four-wheeled electric vehicles (EV).
According to officials, the rooftop solar powered EV charging stations use renewable energy to charge EVs during daytime, but at night or on a heavily cloudy day the chargers use grid power like any other charging station.
