Chartered Speed to Deploy 900+ Electric Buses in India Under Major Green Transit Initiative
Chartered Speed has secured a groundbreaking contract from Convergence Energy Services Limited (CESL) to operate over 900 electric buses under the Pradhan Mantri e-Bus Sewa Scheme. This initiative marks a significant step toward sustainable urban mobility in India, reinforcing the country’s commitment to green transportation solutions.
Expanding Electric Mobility Across Three States
The fleet of electric buses will revolutionize public transit in 13 cities across three states:
- Chhattisgarh: Raipur, Durg-Bhilai, Bilaspur, Korba
- Rajasthan: Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Kota, Ajmer, Alwar, Bikaner, Bhilwara
- Meghalaya: Shillong
The deployment of these buses will provide residents with cleaner, more efficient transportation options, reducing pollution and enhancing urban mobility.
Economic and Environmental Impact
This initiative is more than just an environmental breakthrough—it is a significant economic driver:
- 290,000+ daily passengers will benefit from zero-emission public transport.
- 2,000+ new jobs will be created across these regions, boosting local economies.
- Thousands of diesel bus journeys will be replaced daily, significantly cutting carbon emissions and improving air quality.
Chartered Speed’s Expanding Footprint
The contract marks a major expansion for Chartered Speed, which currently operates 1,800+ buses across Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, and Assam. With this new agreement, the company further strengthens its leadership in transportation services across B2G, B2B, and B2C sectors.
India’s Most Ambitious Electric Bus Deployment
This project represents one of India’s most extensive electric bus rollouts to date. It signals a major leap forward in the adoption of large-scale electric transit solutions, proving that such initiatives can be successfully implemented across varied geographic and infrastructural landscapes.
The move aligns with India’s broader sustainability goals and urban development strategies, showcasing the potential for green public transportation at a national level. With this deployment, Chartered Speed and CESL are paving the way for a cleaner, more sustainable future in Indian urban transport.
