Sudhir Mehta is excited that his company has received the CESL (Convergence Energy Services) order for electric buses.

As per the officials, this is the beginning of the adventure, and it is thrilling since the firm has been working on it for a few years. The company chose the more difficult path of attempting to engineer everything in India in order to make-in-India,

It took some time to have things certified because EKA's parent business, Pinnacle Industries, was always very clear about putting up an e-bus platform designed in India.

EKA was awarded the contract to operate and repair 310 electric buses as part of CESL's recently completed tender for 6,465 electric buses. The buses will be deployed in three different Indian states.

The task of financing firms is to give money and support for which they are compensated over time. Meanwhile, the operator must run the product on an agreed-upon schedule and provide staff. This will be a significant learning experience for Pinnacle since it will be required to provide buses over the following two years.

EKA Mobility has partnered with EVR Motors

EVR Motors in India will provide compact, lightweight electric motors for e-buses and light commercial vehicles (LCVs). Under the terms of the agreement, EVR will manufacture electric motors for EKA using groundbreaking patented technology.

These e-motors will be sourced by EKA and integrated into the automobiles it would provide in the Indian market. EVR will help build up EKA's assembly line.

The Trapezoidal Stator Radial Flux Permanent Magnet (TS-RFPM) Motor is a patented motor topology created by EVR Motors. EVR's electric motors are 30-50 per cent lighter and smaller than traditional motors, cost much less, and can be adjusted to user specifications.

EVR's initial commercially produced motors were developed for two-wheelers and three-wheelers, but they are also suitable for a variety of other uses.

EVR is now developing motors for a wide range of mobility applications, including mild hybrid electric vehicles (MHEVs), hybrid vehicles (HEVs), and full battery electric vehicles (BEVs).
