Kerala State Cooperative Institute of Information Technology Electronics and Communications (COSTECH) and Easygo Power Private Limited have entered into a joint venture to set up 2,000 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations across Kerala. The agreement was officially signed in the presence of Dr. D. Sajith Babu IAS, the State Cooperative Registrar, with Prof. E. Kunhiraman, Chairman of COSTECH, and Dr. V.P. Sajeven, Chairman of Easygo, signing the document at the event.
The joint initiative between COSTECH and Easygo includes 24-hour operational charging stations, along with additional facilities such as coffee shops, internet cafes, and public information centers.
This project aims to ensure top-notch service for customers. Studies show that the market for electric vehicles (EVs) is growing in India, especially in Kerala, which is further supported by the COSTECH-Easygo partnership. With projections estimating over 1 million electric vehicles on Kerala’s roads by 2030, providing comprehensive charging infrastructure for these vehicles has become essential.
The charging stations in Kerala are being established per the central government’s guidelines for electric vehicle charging infrastructure. As part of the COSTECH-Easygo initiative, technical assistance and bank loans will be provided to families, youth groups, hospitals, places of worship, IT parks, cooperative organizations, and those with a 500-square-foot space (either owned or leased) to set up charging stations.
