Schneider Electric, the global specialist in digital transformation of energy management and automation, announced that the company is keen to tap into the Indian electric vehicle charging infrastructure market.

Given the huge potential in the electric vehicle charging space, Schneider Electric displayed its EV charging infrastructure named EVLinks at its first Innovation Summit in India on March 19 and 20 in New Delhi.

“EVLinks is already available in different markets across the world and the company is keen to tap into the nascent Indian market for the same. The EV charging platform can be installed both at homes as well as public places,” a company statement said.

The Innovation Summit brought together more than 2,000 customers, policy makers and industry leaders. Leaders shared critical insights on how automation and digitisation are helping to manage energy with disruptive technology tools leading to efficiency in business. The summit also reiterated Schneider Electric’s commitment to a sustainability agenda and complete alignment with the Indian government’s long-term goal of bringing down carbon footprint.

Addressing the plenary, Amitabh Kant, CEO of Niti Aayog, said the country is poised for paradigm shifts with huge disruptions in physical infrastructure. He adds, “We are creating 100 smart cities with another 50 cities which will be connected by metro and a few connected with bullet trains. The government is converging physical infrastructure with biometric-based digital infrastructure to improve human lives with uninterrupted water and electricity supplies, efficient public transportation, quality education and healthcare services.”
