The Government of India has approved Rs 81.12 crore in financial assistance to Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation to deploy 591 public EV charging stations across 262 locations statewide under the PM e-Drive scheme. The rollout includes 112 locations in Jaipur, 49 in Ajmer, 39 in Udaipur and 28 in Kota, with 34 additional sites planned along national highway stretches. The funding aims to expand Rajasthan's early stage EV infrastructure and support green energy adoption.
Why it matters: This state level tender signals substantial public procurement opportunity for charge point operators and equipment suppliers targeting tier two and tier three Indian cities. The highway corridor component offers strategic network expansion potential for operators seeking intercity coverage in northern India.
