Finally after nine months of waiting, UT administrator Banwarilal Purohit has given nod to make 23 public charging stations in the city operational, which were installed in November last year.
Sukhwinder Singh Abrol, project director, CREST (Chandigarh Renewable Energy and Science and Technology Promotion Society), said, “We have received the nod from the UT administrator and now will convey it to the Rajasthan- based agency who is handling the project. We are hopeful that the stations will be made functional within two weeks.
The UT administration has even fixed the rates of the charging stations and installation work on 44 stations at different locations is already underway.
