Okaya EV reported the commissioning of high-capacity EV chargers for the Ayodhya Water Metro Project. The stations, equipped with 150 kWh of CCS2 Fast EV chargers, support the Water Metro service operating between Guptar Ghat and Naya Ghat. These boats are designed to accommodate up to 50 passengers. Currently, travelling by road between the two ghats takes about 40 minutes due to numerous detours. With the introduction of the water metro, passengers will save half an hour.
The Cochin Shipyard manages the Ayodhya Water Metro Project, overseeing its implementation. The next phase of the Water Metro Project involves the installation of Okaya EV fast chargers in Varanasi, contributing to the expansion of economical and sustainable transport initiatives in the region.
Dr. Anshul Gupta, Managing Director of Okaya EV, said, "By integrating our EV chargers, we are not just powering boats; we are fueling a transformative journey towards eco-friendly mobility. Okaya EV is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of innovation, and our role in this project states our dedication to shaping a greener and more sustainable future for generations to come."
