Adani TotalEnergies E-Mobility Limited (ATEL), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Adani Total Gas Limited (ATGL), and MG Motor India signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on April 8 to strengthen the EV charging infrastructure in India.
The joint collaboration will develop the charging solutions for electric
vehicle (EV) and value-added services for MG's EV customers and will underpin India's rapidly evolving EV ecosystem by building a robust and efficient charging infrastructure.
Under this strategic partnership, both parties will explore the potential of integrating public charging stations across platforms by leveraging advanced application programming interfaces (APIs) to enhance network visibility and accessibility, said the companies in a joint statement.
This integration will offer increased accessibility and visibility to the PCS Network and a seamless experience across the integrated network owned and deployed by both entities, the release added.
