Two-wheeler manufacturer Hero MotoCorp has partnered with Ather Energy for an interoperable fast-charging network in the country, the company said in a regulatory filing with the BSE on Wednesday, December 6. The partnership will allow EV users to use both VIDA and Ather Grids across the country. The combined network will cover 100 cities with more than 1,900 fast-charging points.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) recently approved the Light Electric Combined Charging System (LECCS), which can operate on both AC and DC and can be used for charging light electric vehicles.
