Through this collaboration, over 5,350 HPCL EV chargers—including 3,043 DC fast chargers strategically located along highways, major cities, and key retail outlets—have been integrated into the Kazam app via its OCPI-powered platform.
This integration will give the EV users across the nation of India access to locate, browse, and navigate HPCL expanding charging network in real-time and make EV charging more convenient than ever before. Another initiative by the Government of India is PM eDrive, and it is through this scheme that HPCL, with more than 24,000 fuel retail stores, is quickly growing its EV charging infrastructure, which demonstrates its ability to decarbonize its movement and assist India in realizing sustainable transportation.

This partnership will enhance India’s public EV charging ecosystem. It marks a decisive step in the country’s transition to sustainable mobility, uniting one of India’s largest energy companies with one of its fastest-growing EV innovators,” said Paras Shah, COO of Kazam.
