⚡ Why Bengaluru Leads in EV Charging Infrastructure

Here’s why the city is miles ahead when it comes to electric vehicle adoption and charging support:

✅ Early adoption of the Karnataka EV Policy (2017)
✅ Aggressive rollout by BESCOM (Bangalore Electricity Supply Company)
✅ Government-installed stations at BBMP, TTMC, and BDA offices
✅ Massive private sector involvement — food delivery, courier fleets, and app-based taxis
✅ Residential and commercial buildings installing EV plugs in basements

If you drive an EV in India, there’s no better place to plug in than Bengaluru.

🌞 First-of-its-Kind EV Solar Hub

BESCOM is also building India’s first 24×7 solar-powered EV hub near Kempegowda International Airport, capable of charging 23 vehicles simultaneously with 20 high-speed ports. Charging times? Just 30 minutes.

They’ve even rolled out:

💬 EV charging via WhatsApp
