“In the past five years, the Indian government has announced many useful steps to boost the sales of electric vehicles. Many EV startups are expanding and we have invested a lot in this sector. So Kazam is the perfect choice for integration. This is because we believe the infrastructure and research needs of vehicle charging are critical to the success of the industry as a whole as more and more e-mobility startups are launched and expanded. Kazam's strong founding team understands the technical and business infrastructure needed to accelerate business growth and drive investment in the business,” said Inflection Point Ventures founder Vinay Bansal.
As per Akshay Shekhar, the co-founder of Kazam Electric vehicles is developing rapidly. Kazam provides solutions that meet the charging needs of electric vehicles for homes and public places. Kazam provides equipment in addition to day-to-day management and operation. Kazam aims to install 10,000 chargers in the coming two years and build a strong team to support it.
According to another co-founder of Kazam Vaibhav Tyagi, customers want to use electric vehicles but take a step backward due to a lack of infrastructure. Through Kazam charging stations, people do smart spending to generate income. Kazam will make people understand how to create affordable micro-entrepreneurs to build a national network of charging points and stations PAN India.
Kazam’s aim towards e-mobility
The company aims to accelerate India's growing electric vehicle (EV) market and demand for charging-per-vehicle (2W/3W/4W) infrastructure for personal and commercial use. The company's goal is to expand its e-mobility network to support IoT devices, enabling customer and billing accounting through connectivity, analytics, BMS, and mobile apps. Kazam also created an open architecture to give the protocol and APIs to other boot device manufacturers. The integrated cost center and software can be installed and managed without any special skills and through a mobile app. The Indian Energy Storage Federation (IESA) reports that the Indian electric vehicle market will exceed 6.3 million units per year by 2027. The number of regular vehicles will start decreasing gradually. India's carbon dioxide emissions also help and motivate Kazam to speed up production.
