Tata Power and Jaguar Land Rover agree EV charging partnership

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) and Tata Power have agreed a deal for Tata to develop a charging infrastructure in the car maker’s 27 locations in 24 Indian cities, and at the homes and offices of its customers. The AC and DC chargers involved will have a capacity range between 7-50 kW, and JLR India said the move was part of developing the right ecosystem for the Indian launch of the Jaguar I-PACE EV later in 2020. Tata has already agreed to supply 300 EV charging stations for its sister company Tata Motors.

Jaguar Land Rover has entered into a partnership with Tata Power, which is India’s largest integrated power company, to provide end-to-end EV charging solutions.

Tata Power will provide charging solutions to Jaguar Land Rover in India, and it will be spread across its retail network of 27 outlets in 24 cities and at customer’s’ residence and office. Tata Power will provide a range of AC and DC chargers, which will range from 7 kW to 50 kW capacity.

Speaking on the partnership, Rohit Suri, President, and Managing Director, Jaguar Land Rover India, said, “The partnership with Tata Power will be a tremendous value addition for Jaguar Land Rover customers as it provides a one-stop solution to their charging needs and also provides easy accessibility to the wide network of public charging infrastructure being set up by Tata Power across India. This tie-up is one step forward in creating the right ecosystem enabling a simple and hassle-free charging experience for owners of our first electric vehicle, the Jaguar I-PACE, which makes debut in India later this year.”
