Ather Energy And ChargeMOD Collaborate To Expand EV Charging Network In Kerala

Ather's Charging Network Expansion

Ather Energy established India's first two-wheeler fast charging network, known as Ather Grid, in 2018. As of December 31, 2024, the company had installed 291 Ather Grid fast chargers in Kerala. Between August 2024 and January 2025, Ather led the market in Kerala, recording over 10,000 sales, according to data from Vahaan.

Previous Collaborations

Earlier, Ather Energy has also partnered with companies such as Bharat Petroleum Corporation, Sangeetha Mobiles Private and Cafe Coffee Day Global to install Ather grid fast chargers across various locations. In FY 2025 (April-December), Ather added 799 fast chargers to its charging network and as of 31st December 2024, Ather had 2583 fast chargers in India.

The company’s charging infrastructure also supports interoperability through the LECCS (Light Electric Combined Charging System) standard, which was published as an Indian standard in August 2023, thus promoting wider accessibility of charging infrastructure for all EVs with the LECCS connector.

Ravneet Singh Phokela, Chief Business Officer, Ather Energy, said, “Since the very beginning, we have focused on establishing a nationwide charging network, and have believed that OEMs should collaborate with CPOs (Charging Point Operators) to expand the charging network in the country. The standardisation of the LECCS connector as the type 7 connector, further supports this collaboration. Ather’s partnership with ChargeMOD is another step in the direction. We believe, working with Charge Point Operators (CPOs), will help enhance the charging network and make it more accessible to EV owners.”
