Jio-bp – a fuel and mobility joint venture between RIL and bp – and Zomato have entered into an agreement to support Zomato’s commitment to The Climate Group’s EV100 initiative for a 100% EV fleet by 2030. Jio -bp will provide EV mobility services to Zomato along with access to ‘Jio-bp pulse’ battery exchange stations for last-mile deliveries.
Leveraging RIL and bp’s strengths in electrification, Jio-bp built and launched two EV charging hubs in India last year. The JV’s electric mobility business, which provides charging infrastructure to Indian consumers, operates under the Jio-bp pulse brand.
The partnership is poised to accelerate the adoption of EVs in the fast-growing Indian delivery and transportation segment, the company said in a statement.
“With powerful batteries resulting in superior driving range on the road and with battery changes taking just a few minutes, battery swapping has become an ideal solution for two- and three-wheelers, especially those operating in the last-mile delivery segment. to play. Therefore, battery swapping will be the main driver for electrification of the last-mile delivery and passenger segments,” the company said.
