MegaCharge Partners with National Highways for Electric Vehicles for 5,500 km E-Highway Network
MegaCharge, the EV charging solutions arm of Mega Nirman & Industries Ltd., has announced a strategic partnership with the National Highways for Electric Vehicles (NHEV). This collaboration aims to deploy EV charging infrastructure across India's ambitious 5,500 km e-highway network, providing 660 charging points.The alliance is noted as a significant step toward strengthening India's EV ecosystem, facilitating seamless longdistance electric mobility. Under this partnership, MegaCharge will take a primary role in deploying and maintaining advanced EV charging stations along crucial highway corridors.
The NHEV initiative seeks to establish a reliable intercity EV charging backbone, connecting major cities and economic hubs via a dependable fast-charging network. MegaCharge's expertise in AC and DC fast chargers, coupled with its operational capabilities, positions it to execute this large-scale infrastructure rollout.
Ankan Gupta, founder of MegaCharge, stated, "We are proud to partner with NHEV on this transformative initiative. This project aligns perfectly with our vision of building 5,000 scalable and accessible EV charging points across India by 2030. Highway charging infrastructure is the backbone of EV adoption and this collaboration allows us to contribute meaningfully to India's clean mobility transition."
MegaCharge anticipates that this initiative will help accelerate EV adoption by reducing range anxiety, enable reliable intercity EV travel, support government-driven sustainability and electrification goals, and create future-ready charging infrastructure at scale.
NHEV Program Scope
The National Highways for Electric Vehicles (NHEV) program focuses on developing a robust EV charging and support infrastructure across key highway corridors in India. The program covers 26 national highways and expressways spanning 14 states. The vision involves transforming nearly 5,500 km into green 'e-highways' by 2030. These corridors are slated to integrate EV charging, battery-swapping, and roadside assistance services to support efficient long-distance travel.The initiative is being implemented under the Annuity Hybrid E-Mobility (AHEM) model, which unites government entities, public sector undertakings (PSUs), and private sector partners to build a scalable and commercially viable e-mobility ecosystem. Furthermore, the program plans for the development of 'green fuel stations', future-ready hubs that will integrate EV charging with hydrogen and other emerging clean energy solutions.
MegaCharge Infrastructure Deployment
MegaCharge operates as an EV charging infrastructure and technology solutions provider, aiming to accelerate electric mobility adoption across India. The company utilizes end-to-end deployment capabilities and intelligent charging solutions to build scalable, reliable EV ecosystems for businesses, governments, and communities.MegaCharge's technology integrates AC and DC charging systems and grid-ready technology, incorporating features such as Dynamic Load Balancing and a unified digital platform for discovering, accessing, and managing charging services.
The company has reported deploying over 20 charging points to date, including installations at Best Business Park, Pitampura, serving commercial EV drivers in Kirari and residential users across multiple RWAs in Rohini. Recent expansion activity includes a deployment in Dilbagh Rose Garden Society in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh.
Future installations are planned at key locations such as the Bar Association Complex at Rohini Court, additional RWAs across North Delhi, and Roseate House, with further expansion scheduled for Lucknow and Dehradun.
