The energy company aims to bring charging solutions to fuel stations, standalone EV hubs and homes

With its plan to set up over 10,000 charging points in the country by 2030, Shell India recently unveiled its first electric vehicle (EV) chargers in Bengaluru. These chargers are meant both for four-wheelers as well as two-wheelers. The company claims that 100% green energy is used to power its latest chargers.

These chargers will be accessible through the ‘Shell Recharge India’ app, which is commonly available. The app helps in locating the nearest available charger, choosing a desirable charging method (by unit, time or by percentage), checking real-time charging status, and making hassle-free payments.
