Gurgaon, February 15, 2022: Park+, India’s super app for car owners, and goEgoNetwork, India’s largest OCA certified EV charging network, today announced a collaboration to deploy EV charging solutions in India. The collaboration will lead to a network of charging infrastructure for EVs across India, starting with Delhi-NCR.

Amit Lakhotia, Founder & CEO, Park+ said “Park+ is committed to bringing delight back to car ownership – by building an integrated ecosystem of all car related services. Low penetration of EV chargers is the biggest factor which discourages potential EV customers from buying one. With our unique real estate access, large demand generating consumer base, and strong technology stack, we are confident of solving this problem in collaboration with our partners.”

Dheeman Kadam, Co-founder at goEgoNetwork, said, “Charging infrastructure is one of the key barriers of EV adoption. With this initiative, we hope to provide consumers easy access to EV charging stations. A lot of youngsters today prefer EVs as they are cost-effective, have no carbon emissions, zero noise and this kind of initiative to create EV charging infrastructure fast should encourage EV adoption among them. This is also in tune with the goEgoNetwork’s vision of empowering EV owners with a wide network of charging solutions, in close proximity to wherever they go.”
