Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has signed a MoU with Mahindra and Kinetic Electric for setting up 100 electric charging points for  cars and 2-wheelers in the region.

TMC has already started scouting for locations to evenly distribute the infrastructure in the ever-growing city.

To make electric mobility even more lucrative for faster adoptions. The corporation plans to bear 75 per cent of the electricity cost in 2019, 50 per cent in 2020 and 25 per cent in 2021.

The charging stations are also said to offer battery swaps, the technology for which is already being developed.
