Indofast Energy Partners with Zeon Charging to Expand Battery Swapping Network Across Southern India

Indofast Energy, a battery-swapping solutions provider, has announced a partnership with Zeon Charging, a Charge Point Operators (CPOs), to expand battery swapping infrastructure across premium, high-footfall locations in Southern India. The collaboration will see Indofast Energy deploying its Quick Interchange Stations (QIS) at Zeon Charging's established network of sites spanning premium malls, metro parking areas and commercial hubs across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and other key markets.

The partnership has commenced with the deployment of 6 QIS across two locations in Bengaluru, including a presence at Orion Mall, Rajajinagar - one of the city's busiest commercial destinations. Plans are underway to scale the Orion Mall deployment further, with discussions ongoing to increase to 5-6 additional QIS at the site.

By leveraging Zeon Charging's portfolio of premium, high-visibility locations, Indofast Energy gains access to sites that combine strong footfall, established power infrastructure and strategic positioning within urban mobility corridors. For delivery riders and commercial EV users, this means access to battery swapping at well-connected locations where a two-minute swap ensures zero disruption to daily operations.

The partnership marks a step in Indofast Energy's strategy of deepening its network density across Southern India - a region that already accounts for a substantial share of the company's operational footprint, with over 450 stations in Bengaluru alone.

Speaking on this partnership, Subhash Bhat, Interim CEO, Indofast Energy, said, "Our collaboration with Zeon Charging enables us to bring battery swapping to some of the most accessible and high-visibility locations across Southern India. Premium malls, metro parking facilities and commercial hubs are exactly the kind of high-traffic sites where EV users need seamless energy access. By partnering with an established CPO like Zeon, we are accelerating our network expansion into power-ready, strategically positioned locations. This is a natural extension of our mission to make battery swapping accessible wherever riders need energy, making it the most practical and accessible choice for EV users across India."

Akhil Venkateshwaran, CTO and Director, Zeon Charging, said, "At Zeon Charging, we are building future-ready EV infrastructure that serves the evolving needs of India's electric mobility ecosystem.  Partnering with Indofast Energy unlocks a vital piece of this objective  catering to both fixed-charging users and the rapidly growing battery swapping segment.  This collaboration at strategic venues like Orion Mall in Bangalore proves that integrating swapping stations into premium retail and transit hubs is highly effective in creating a seamless, sustainable and convenient experience for EV drivers across Southern India. We look forward to scaling this partnership rapidly across our network."

Indofast Energy has established itself as a key enabler of sustainable urban mobility through strategic partnerships with leading OEMs, fleet operators and infrastructure partners. The company's network of 1900 plus swap stations across 24 cities supports over 120,000 vehicles and has enabled 2 billion plus kilometres of clean mobility, while helping avoid over 97,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions.
