This initiative, taken by BatX Energies in collaboration with MG Motor, is supported by Delhi Research Implementation and Innovation. According to a press release, the product is now in its industrialisation stage.

With the help of this innovation, the electronic vehicle charging station will be used to charge both two-wheelers and four-wheelers. One off-grid solar EV charging station was inaugurated at an IIT Delhi event on February 8, 2024. Besides, these charging stations are independently operational and do not require any external energy sources. This innovation aims to decrease consumers’ dependence on conventional charging methods and focuses on reducing carbon emissions.

This second-life battery storage system, starting at 20 kWh and scalable up to 100 kWh, supported by 6.6 kW of solar power, signifies a transformative shift in energy solutions. Generating approximately 40 kWh daily, which is equivalent to 40 units.

MG Motor India is one of the most popular EV manufacturers in India. With their existing collection, such as the Comet EV and the ZS ES, the manufacturer aims to launch more models on the market. Moreover, the company has more than 15,000 charging points all over the country.
