Magenta Power to Roll Out its Street Lamp Integrated EV Charger by April

Magenta Power, a HPCL-backed startup providing green energy solutions, has today unveiled its first Street Lamp Integrated electric vehicle (EV) Charger called ‘ChargeGrid Flare’.

The company is further planning to roll-out this newly launched Street Lamp Integrated EV Charger into the market by next month this year.

This new range of EV charging points, which is the first of its kind in the country, can be incorporated within energy-efficient street lamp columns that will encourage EV adoption for flexible and low cost charging solutions.

The company said that it has specially designed ChargeGrid Flare in partnership with HPCL to offer energy-efficient street light combined with EV charging point.

It is one of a kind product that offers integrated EV charging facilities from within a durable and traditional looking – street light.

Further, this unique technology will enable the city to deploy curb side vehicle charging more quickly, with lower cost, and less street clutter than other approaches.

During the first stage, these EV chargers will be installed at HPCL retail outlets in major cities on pan India basis.

Commenting on the launch, Maxson Lewis – Director, Magenta Power, said “we are delighted to be adding ChargeGrid Flare to our already extensive portfolio of EV charging solutions. Understanding the existing EV Challenges, what we are aiming to do is, instead of getting the car parked next to a charging station we bring the charging station to where the car is parked. This product is made specifically for India with low footprint and power situations. With ChargeGrid Flare, we can build a dense and convenient EV charging infrastructure at low cost, with less clutter to the existing city landscape.”

Also, such new EV charger has become an ideal solution for installation into both new and existing car parking, street and corporate parking environments and at retail outlets.
