Exicom Tele-Systems Limited, a prominent Indian manufacturer of EV charging and critical power solutions, has announced its backing of Charger on Wheels, a mobile EV charging startup focused on on-demand charging services.
The partnership positions Exicom as a technology enabler for the mobile charging concept, which aims to address infrastructure gaps in India's evolving electric vehicle ecosystem. Charger on Wheels operates a fleet of mobile charging units that provide DC fast charging services at customers' preferred locations.
According to Anant Nahata, Managing Director and CEO of Exicom, the collaboration addresses critical pain points in EV adoption, particularly grid readiness challenges in urban areas. "Mobile EV charging or Charger on Wheels can help bridge this gap," Nahata stated, describing the solution as "Capex-light" compared to traditional fixed infrastructure.
The startup has already established partnerships with leading property developers for residential charging services through mobile vans. Founder Anil Kumar highlighted the timing of the partnership, noting that limited grid availability and fire safety regulations restricting basement charging installations create significant market opportunities.
This initiative represents Exicom's continued efforts to strengthen India's electric mobility infrastructure. Recent months have seen the company announce partnerships with Germany-based Hubject for interoperability solutions, Ionage for integrated charger management systems, and Mufin Green Infra for turnkey customer solutions.
Charger on Wheels utilizes a technology platform that supports real-time booking, tracking, and energy optimization. The service-based model targets convenience and accessibility across urban and semi-urban markets in India, where traditional charging infrastructure deployment faces various constraints.
The mobile charging approach offers potential solutions to several challenges facing India's EV charging network, including limited grid capacity in dense urban areas and regulatory restrictions on charging equipment placement in certain building types.
Both companies view the partnership as complementary to existing infrastructure rather than replacement technology, with the goal of accelerating practical EV adoption through diversified charging options.
