Community Charging Stations
![]() We at PluginIndia realize that companies and the government can only do so much, when it comes to installing charging stations. The beauty of an electric vehicle is that any home/business/hotel can install an EV charge point.
We popularized the concept of community charging stations. The idea is for businesses / resorts / vacation homes etc, which are at a distance of 40-70 km around cities to setup normal 15 Amp charge points or Smart EVSE for electric cars and next generation electric bikes. ![]() RE:CHARGE India Mobile App

FAQ
- How can i be sure if the community charge point is safe to use?
Many companies have started listing their points, they perform routine maintenance of their smart EVSE's. Regarding other community points, please check with the contact if there is adequate earthing and the voltage does not fluctuate. - How fast can these points charge my electric car or an e-Scooter?
Most points listed here are simple 240V, 15Amp sockets that can put out max of around 2.5 kW into your EV.
But we now have started listing DC fast chargers that can charge your electric car batteries at 7 to 10 kW rate. - Can i call before visiting?
Yes. Most community charge point will have a contact number. - Will we have support from PluginIndia, if something goes wrong?
This is a community initiative. PluginIndia.com is only acting as a facilitator between the owner of the charge point and the community.
You can visit our site and contact us, if you want help. We always check our messages and we will get back to you.
Many companies have started listing their points in our app. Contact them if there are issues. Numbers are always provided in the app. - If this free or paid?
That depends on the business or the person responsible for those charging stations. Some might offer it as a free service some might take a small fee. The fee depends on the owner but we will ensure it is nominal. - I want to help the EV community and setup a station at my business. What are your guidelines regarding prices?
Great! Charge a nominal rate based on the cost of electricity in your area. Generally EV's consume 2 kWh (2 units), when charged for an hour. Although it depends on the model. Some businesses also charge a fixed hourly rate - Example : Rs 40 per hour. - Why are you doing this?
We @ PluginIndia want to see as many EV's possible on Indian roads. And we corporations or the government will take time in setting up real DC Quick charge charging stations or AC stations. Meanwhile, the community can setup these stations which will help EV owners go beyond their city on weekends or for work without worrying about charge running out. These stations will also act as an incentive for a potential EV buyer to go for these environment friendly vehicles. - Anything else?
We only publish stations owned by people who are interested in supporting the cause of EV's. PluginIndia.com is not responsible for any issues or problems that arises.
Do you or do you have friends who own a business / resort / vacation home around a city and
