EV charging startup Log9 has forged a partnership with Trinity Cleantech to establish charging stations nationwide, branded as Thunder+. Through this collaboration, approximately 2,000 charging units will be deployed across India, addressing range anxiety and enhancing EV accessibility, as stated by the companies.
The partnership extends beyond hardware deployment, integrating Trinity’s Thunder Platform with Log9’s ‘Instacharge’ platform to optimize operations and improve user experience. Together, Log9 and Trinity commit to navigating technological advancements in connectors, protocols, and payment gateways to ensure sustained compatibility in the evolving EV landscape.
Log9’s Co-founder & COO, Kartik Hajela, highlighted the significance of Type 6/Bharat LEV DC as a standard fast-charge protocol for last-mile low voltage vehicles. He emphasized Log9’s commitment to providing access to this protocol for their next-generation fast-charge battery customers.
Trinity Cleantech’s CEO, Raj Kumar Medimi, emphasized the importance of setting up DC fast charging stations to instill confidence in the industry and enhance convenience for existing e3Ws and e2Ws owners.
Additionally, Log9 recently announced a Series B funding round led by Amara Raja Batteries and Petronas Ventures, with support from Sequoia, Exfinity Ventures, and Incred Financial Services. This funding underscores investor enthusiasm for e-mobility, which saw significant attention in FY23, with over half a billion dollars raised.
Industry experts anticipate further growth in 2024, reflecting the positive trajectory of the e-mobility sector.
