EIM Partners with OWS and Radiance to Deploy 500 Electric Heavy Trucks

Energy In Motion Limited (EIM) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Oil Field Warehouse & Services Limited (OWS) and Radiance Green Mobility Private Limited to deploy 500 electric heavy commercial vehicles (e-HCVs) across key industrial freight routes in India.

The commercial deployment will target high-density cargo corridors, including Mumbai-Pune, Mundra-Morbi-Ahmedabad, and Mumbai-Delhi. The initial phase will commence in October 2026 with 50 electric heavy vehicles on the Mumbai-Pune corridor, scaling up as EIM expands its dedicated battery-swapping network along the selected routes.

EIM's Ashwa Electric Tractor and Battery-Swapping Ecosystem

Under the arrangement, EIM will supply its electric heavy vehicle ecosystem, which includes the Ashwa 55-ton electric tractor, battery-swapping systems, and charging infrastructure. The company recently completed the homologation of a 350-kWh battery variant of the Ashwa tractor. OWS and Radiance Green Mobility, an arm of Jyothi Transport & Freight Services, will manage commercial fleet operations and logistics deployment.

Electric Heavy Trucks Seen Cutting Freight Costs Versus Diesel

Narendra Murkumbi, Managing Director of EIM, noted that the collaboration will help reduce heavy freight operating costs relative to conventional diesel transport while cutting reliance on imported fossil fuels.
