NEW DELHI : An Electric Vehicle (EV) charging station with 100 charging points for 4 wheelers began operation on Friday in sector 52 of Gurugram. The EV station has been developed by Alektrify, a tech-piloting company. Out of the 100 charging points, 72 units are AC slow chargers while 24 units consist of DC fast chargers.
