Ola Electric to Plant Chargers in Public, Private and Residential Spaces

Ride sharing and now electric two wheeler maker, Ola Electric is pondering to build three charging infrastructures for public, private and residential complexes. Firstly, it plans to build a public charging infrastructure and is already in talks with Bharat Petroleum to establish hyperchargers in petrol bunks across the country.
According to the company, the Ola Hypercharger would be the fastest two-wheeler charging network. The Ola S1s can be charged 50 percent in 18 minutes and have a range of 75 km, according to the platform.
While it’s at it, the ridesharing platform is also planning to construct charging points at the premises of builders and real estate developers and is also in advanced talks with them.
As for residential complexes, it’s in talks with an apartment software company, Apna Complex

Should manufacturers choose to install Ola's charging cable specifications in their vehicles, Ola plans to offer up these chargers to other brands in the future.
Ola Electric intends to monetize these charging stations by charging clients for the service in the long run, however it may be free at first or for a limited number of customers.
The firm has yet to make a decision in this regard.
Ola Hyperchargers will be extensively distributed across cities and will be found as standalone towers in city centres as well as crowded commercial districts, according to the company. It will also be shown at prominent sites such as malls, IT parks, office buildings, cafes, and other similar establishments, according to the statement.

Range anxiety, or the concern that the battery will no longer be a worry on the road, forcing the rider to halt in the middle of their journey, necessitates the use of public charging stations.
It is one of the most significant roadblocks to the widespread adoption of electric automobiles.
