Ather Energy installs more than 500 Ather fast charging grids across India
Ather Energy announced the installation of the 580th public fast charging point, the Ather Grid, across 56 cities in India. As the company expands its footprint nationally, Ather Energy plans to install 820 more grids, taking the count to 1400 by the end of FY23. Ather Grids have been strategically installed across markets, with 60% of current installations in tier-II and tier-III cities.
Since inception, Ather Energy has been building a robust charging ecosystem to support the growth of the EV industry and facilitate a hassle-free transition to EVs. The Ather Grid allows EV owners to charge their vehicles up to 80% at 1.5 km/min. The charging network is supported by the Ather Grid app which allows all EV owners to locate and check the availability of the nearest charging stations in real-time. The fast charging network can be used by all electric two-wheelers and electric four-wheelers, and this facility is being offered free of charge to everyone till the end of December 2022.
Ather Energy has partnered with multiple players like Park+, Magenta Power, and signed MoU with the Government of Karnataka, to set up EV charging locations in various cities. Ather Energy will continue to partner with more progressive hosts which can offer EV owners easy accessibility, curb range anxiety, and ease the adoption of electric vehicles. Ather Energy is also working with Co-operative Housing Societies & Owners’ Associations to help Ather owners in setting up home charging solutions in their apartments and buildings.
