RIL-BP may set up EV charging points at its fuel retail outlets
Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) and BP Plc plan to offer electric vehicle (EV) charging points at their energy stations across India, a senior RIL official said, as the two companies seek to benefit from the government push to increase sales of eco-friendly vehicles.
RIL, controlled by billionaire Mukesh Ambani, is expected to tap the expertise of BP, its British partner in the field of charging EVs, said the official, on condition of anonymity.
“RIL has always looked at offering CNG (compressed natural gas), LNG (liquefied natural gas) and EV charging options at its outlets as most of them are located on highways, a convenient location to have,” the RIL official said.
