The Central Railway, Mumbai, has taken the lead in providing charging points near its stations for electric vehicles. This will not only promote green mobility around railway stations which are inter-modal hubs, but also boost overall electric mobility in the city. It is a first of its kind innovation by the Indian Railways.

All important stations in the island city, suburbs and adjoining Mumbai Metropolitan Region have been selected so as to cover a wider geographical area. The idea behind the venture was brought to Indian Railways by Tata Power and the United Nations Environment Programme.
