BENGALURU: Bescom on Tuesday announced the launch of its land aggregator portal for the establishment of EV-charging and battery-swapping stations.
Bescom officials said this initiative is aimed at accelerating EV infrastructure development and supporting the state’s clean and sustainable mobility transition.
The portal serves as a single-window interface for private landowners, government departments, private institutions and Charge Point Operators seeking to establish EV-charging and battery-swapping stations across the state.
It will also enable coordinated power supply arrangements through Bescom. The officials said the portal will enable landowners and EV infrastructure developers to fast-track the establishment of public EV-charging facilities in urban areas and highway corridors.
It is aligned with national electric mobility programmes, including National Highways for Electric Vehicles, and reflects the broader objective of promoting clean mobility and scalable EV infrastructure in the state, the officials said.
Through the portal, landowners can lease their land for EV-charging and battery-swapping installations on a revenue-sharing basis, while vendors and CPOs can manage installation, operation and maintenance. The single-window dashboard will also facilitate timely electricity connectivity, reducing procedural delays and ensuring seamless coordination among stakeholders.
“By integrating land aggregation with a single-window mechanism for power supply facilitation, Bescom is helping ease the process to establish EV-charging and battery-swapping stations. This initiative promotes clean mobility, strengthens public-private partnerships and creates economic opportunities for local communities,”said N Shivashankara, Bescom MD.
