VECV and Jio-bp Pulse Partner to Strengthen EV Charging Network for Commercial Vehicles
In a landmark move for India’s transport sector, VE Commercial Vehicles Limited (VECV), a joint venture between Volvo Group and Eicher Motors, has signed an MoU with Jio-bp pulse to enhance charging access for electric commercial vehicles (EVs).
Through this partnership, all Eicher Trucks and Buses’ EV customers will gain access to 6,000+ Jio-bp charging points, India’s largest DC fast-charging network spanning highways, urban centers, and dedicated EV hubs.
The collaboration is industry-defining—marking the first time a commercial vehicle OEM has integrated a public charging network directly into its fleet management platform.
Seamless Charging via My Eicher App
One of the biggest highlights of the partnership is the integration of Jio-bp pulse’s charging network into the My Eicher app, offering fleet operators real-time visibility of charging locations and availability. This digital innovation addresses a major barrier to EV adoption—charging accessibility—while also providing operators with data-driven insights to optimize fleet utilization and productivity.
Voices from Leadership
Vinod Aggarwal, MD & CEO of VECV, emphasized:
“This MoU with the Jio-bp pulse is a milestone in our mission to electrify trucking in India. By integrating high-power chargers into the My Eicher app, we’re making EV adoption seamless for fleet operators and enabling a faster shift towards zero-emission logistics.”
Sarthak Behuria, Chairman of Jio-bp, added:
“Collaboration between Jio-bp and VECV strengthens our commitment to transform India’s mobility landscape. This partnership directly supports the electrification of the trucking sector and accelerates the Government’s vision for widespread EV adoption.”
Expanding Infrastructure for Fleets
Beyond the MoU, VECV and Jio-bp pulse will also explore depot-level charging solutions and tailor-made infrastructure projects to support large commercial EV fleets and bus operations.
