Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (BPCL) on Thursday launched an electric vehicle fast-charging corridor on the Chennai-Tiruchi–Madurai highway. Ten of its fuel stations — five on each side — set 100 km apart, will have the facility to charge one electric car at a time.
Speaking to newspapers at a press conference before formally launching the first station at Meenambakkam, BPCL Executive Director (in-charge) Retail P.S. Ravi said that around 100 such outlets would come up in the next ten months in the State. These would come up on Chennai–Bengaluru and Chennai–Salem corridors.
