This charging park in Baner-Balewadi, operational 24/7, is a step closer to bringing Pune closer to green energy and sustainability. Pune’s plans to move away from fossil fuels include targets to cut CO2 emissions by as much as 33% by 2030 compared to 2000 and for all new buses from 2020 to be zero-emission. The total number of buses currently stands at 400 plus and is expected to add another 150.


The Charging Park is equipped with goEgoNetwork’s Pelican EV charging station that has a capacity of 60kW. With this charging station, 4-wheeler EV owners can charge their EVs to 80% in just 45-60 minutes and can enjoy a full charge in just 90-120 minutes depending on the size of the battery. The Charging Park is also equipped with a Bharat AC charging station which is a 3-socket charging station that delivers 3.3 KW output in each socket to charge 2 and 3-wheelers. Using the goME app, one can have a seamless charging experience with real-time notifications about the EV’s charging status while the vehicle’s owner can relax and rejuvenate at the shopping bay within the premises.
