EzUrja to Deploy 60 EV Chargers Across Himachal’s Green Highways

As Himachal Pradesh pushes to become India’s first Green Energy and EV state by 2026, Delhi- based EzUrja Charging Solutions Pvt. Ltd. has announced a major initiative to deploy a network of advanced EV charging hubs across the state’s challenging mountainous terrain.
As per the firm’s statement, EzUrja’s highway charging hubs will initially feature 60 EV chargers catering to all vehicle types. Each hub will offer not only fast charging but also restrooms, food outlets, and digital engagement areas, creating a pit stop experience for travellers.

The company’s ‘E-Way Hubs’ are designed specifically for the hill state’s roads, bringing highway charging, mobile EV solutions, and locally manufactured, weatherproof chargers to tourist routes and green corridors. The move aligns with Himachal’s ambitious roadmap of achieving 15 percent EV sales by 2025 and 100 percent by 2030, which has already seen the registration of over 5,000 EVs and approval for 402 charging stations across key routes and government facilities.

“Electric mobility in mountainous terrain requires more than just charging as it needs innovation, uninterrupted charging services, comfort halting and a deep understanding of local and climatic challenges. That’s exactly what we bring,” said Rohit Agarwal, Spokesperson at EzUrja. “Our solutions are made in Himachal, for Himachal, weather-proof, terrain-ready, to be powered by green energy from the State. By manufacturing locally and innovating for local needs, we are aligning with Himachal Pradesh’s environmental and economic goals,” he noted.
The company is also leveraging its EV hub experience in Kolkata to introduce mobile charging units and microgrid-integrated hubs for remote and underserved areas in Himachal. These solutions are expected to help ease range anxiety, especially along tourism circuits and national highways like the Shimla-Chamba route, recently declared a green corridor by the state.

“With locally built technology, we are creating jobs and green industrial growth within the state,” said Ashhok Kapoor, Managing Director, EzUrja Group. “Himachal’s leadership in clean energy is commendable, and we’re proud to contribute to making sustainable mobility scalable, even in the remotest valleys,” he noted.

As per the firm, hilly regions like Himachal Pradesh pose unique challenges for EV adoption, ranging from steeper power consumption during uphill driving to a lack of reliable highway charging access. EzUrja is addressing these hurdles through targeted initiatives that align seamlessly with the government’s green mobility vision, starting with the green corridor highway connecting Shimla to Chamba.
With the state set to procure 300 electric buses and transition 3,000 government vehicles to EVs this year, Ezurja’s infrastructure is poised to become a critical support pillar in Himachal’s green mobility revolution.
