The product was scheduled to be released in April 2020, with several pilot projects to begin immediately afterward. However, due to the effects of Covid-19, we agreed to postpone the installations, and we are now pleased to report that 2021 is off to a great start with this first installation at the HPCL centres. This year, we plan to deploy 1000 ChargeGrid Flare across India, and we’re in talks with OEMs and fuel stations about it. We’re looking forward to working hard in 2021 to make up for the previous year, said Maxson Lewis, Magenta’s MD.
