“Since BHEL is an agency for aggregation of demand for charging stations EV, it is likely that it will also play a key role in selecting these charging stations with participating parties,” said the first of these two persons who previously spoke of the state of anonymity.
As a node agency, the discovery of prices would be a key function of BHEL in its new role in the evolving EV space in India, the other person said.

BHEL shares ended little changed to £253.55 on BSE on Friday.
This assumes importance, because the PM e-drive scheme, the center of the center of the center to motivate green mobility for consumers, assigned about one fifth of its expenditure- £2,000 crore – subsidize electric vehicle charging stations.
Mint previously informed about the Ministry of Heavy Industry, which works with ministries of road transport and motorways, civil aviation and powers to identify places for the establishment of these charging stations EV.
Revolution PM Electric Drive Revolution Innovative Scheme Improvement of Vehicles (PM E-Dive), with financial expenses £10,900 Crore, came into force on October 1, 2024 and will remain in force until 31 March 2026.
Within this program, the government plans to motivate charging stations for electric two -wheel, three rounds, buses and trucks. These chargers must have a minimum capacity of 12 kilowatts for electric two and three wheels, 60 kilowatts for electric quads and 240 kilowatts for electric buses and trucks.
The plan includes 22,100 electric chargers, 48,400 for electric two and three wheels and 1,800 for electric buses and trucks.

The Ministry of the Heavy Industry 21st on May said in a press release that BHEL is considered a node agency for demand agency and for the development of a unified digital super application, which will serve as the only platform for users EV throughout India.
“The application will include real-time slots, integrating payments, charger availability status, and instrumentation panels for monitoring national deployment within the PM E-Drive.
Questions to the Ministry of Heavy Industry and Bhel on Friday remained unanswered until the press time.
According to the Procedure for establishment of EV chargers within the PM E-Drive system, state governments and central ministries can submit an offer for charging stations for EV to the Ministry of Heavy Industry for Aggregation of Demand and Performing Facility Studies. This will be done by nodal agencies appointed by the State Government or the Central Ministry.
The aggregation of demand concerns the collection of the demand of the parties to the parties to determine the volume of the EV charging stations, which will be installed by states or central ministries.
Depending on the installation of EV charging stations, soil availability is the main problem. “In addition to the CAPEX charger and the appropriate need for infrastructure upstream, one of the main components is the availability of soil. Access to land and high leases of land is the main obstacles to deployment of charging infrastructure,” he said.
State governments and central ministries seeking to install charging stations “They can provide access to land at suitable places for EV charging stations with different parties under their control,” said the instructions. According to the instructions, this would motivate the point point operators and other participating parties to install chargers for places with high rent.
The state governments and central ministries should announce its demand for EV points for the Ministry of Heavy Industry for Approval. After approval, a node agency that collected demand and conducted feasibility studies will begin the bid procedure process.
According to the instructions, the node agency appointed by the State Government or the Central Ministry can decide who will be the pupil for the invitation (TIA). The node agency itself can also be TIA, but it can appoint any other agency on its name.
The menu will include identified points for EV charging stations, minimal charger configuration, available area and offer parameters to be followed. After successfully offering the operators of the theme operators and the review by the Ministry of Heavy industries, the subsidy for the charging station will be paid in installments.

Within the PM E-Drive system, the government will finance up to 80% of the cost of the EV charging station. In special circumstances, however, the government may finance the full cost of the charging station according to the instructions.
Indian green mobility has gained strength, but still faces obstacles related to the infrastructure EV charging. “The electric vehicle movement (EV) acquires undeniable dynamics, powered by consumers’ interest in sustainability and long -term costs. The study showed that 36% of Indian consumers preferred to charge for EV.
