As part of its initiative to promote the use of electric vehicles, the Pune Municipal Corporation is planning to set up 15 new charging stations in addition to the existing two stations for PMPML buses.
“The PMPML, a public transport bus service with a fleet of 2,431 buses, had already inducted 150 e-buses in 2019. It is in the process of procuring additional 500 e-buses in its fleet, with 150 of them being added through the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of EV scheme of Union government. The new buses will join the fleet by December this year,” said Rajendra Jagtap, PMPML managing director.
