India's commercial transportation sector, from cargo EVs and taxi fleets to public buses, is electrifying rapidly, but fleet operators face a critical gap they often don't realize until shrinking margins hit the table: charging solutions that promise smart capabilities but deliver basic features.

When ergLocale first started testing EV chargers to bring its intelligent fleet charging to India, we were at a loss. One after another, charging hardware providers claimed "smart" charging capabilities, but deeper testing revealed a fundamental misunderstanding of what smart charging actually means. Some considered the capability to simply book a charging session in advance as a "smart charging" feature!

While many systems claim OCPP compliance and advanced features, real-world validation shows most lack functional smart charging profiles, which is critical for profitable EV fleet operations in ergLocale’s experience.

A Partnership Between Two Engineering Teams

After extensive trials across India, only EVRE's charging hardware met the real-world demands of smart charging. Their Hyderabad manufactured units aren't just certified (Bharat AC 001, IP 54, IK 10); they're designed from the ground up to work with advanced platforms like ergLocale. 

EVRE faced their own challenge: despite building hardware capable of sophisticated smart charging features, most software platforms couldn't unlock these capabilities. 

As EVRE's Product Validation Engineer noted after testing dozens of charging management systems: 

"While the majority of charging management systems have implemented a significant portion of the OCPP 1.6J protocol, most systems remain compliant with the standard but lack integration with advanced features like smart charging (Dynamic load management). ergLocale stands out as the only system that has successfully developed and integrated the smart charging functionalities from the OCPP 1.6J documentation. These advancements hold substantial importance for the near future, particularly in extensive residential and commercial locations"

This created the perfect partnership: EVRE's advanced hardware paired with ergLocale's intelligent software platform to deliver true dynamic power control and predictive energy management for maximum fleet uptime.

“By integrating our AI‑powered smart charging system with EVRE’s robust charging product, we’ve created a solution that optimizes energy distribution in real‑time” said Bishal Madhab, Founder of ergLocale.

ergLocale and EVRE have partnered to offer a complete EV fleet electrification solution: combining real-time fleet charging software with certified, field-tested charging hardware across EVRE’s full product line, including AC and DC fast chargers.

Seamless fleet electrification with integrated hardware and software

This partnership brings together ergLocale’s energy optimization and smart charging software with EVRE’s full range of chargers, enabling fast, reliable deployments for fleet customers. The joint solution supports multiple use cases including last-mile logistics, taxi fleets, commercial depots, and residential charging hubs, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum reliability.

Accelerate rollout with proven tech and hands-on support

Built for scale, the integrated solution enables real-time energy management, dynamic load balancing, and renewable integration. With deployment-ready hardware and intelligent scheduling, customers get faster electrification with operational flexibility, safety, and efficiency.

The combined solution compounds value by aligning predictive software with certified hardware like EVRE’s AC and DC chargers (Bharat AC-001, CCS2, and others), all with IP-54/IK-10 protection and advanced power management features. Together, ergLocale and EVRE ensure performance, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness—delivering a future-ready EV ecosystem.

Seamless Integration: ergLocale and EVRE together brings a deeply integrated hardware–software stack designed specifically for true smart charging and load balancing, currently lacking in India.

Proven Technology: EVRE’s full range of certified AC and DC chargers that are rugged, intelligent, and deployment-ready, have been rigorously tested by ergLocale’s team in close collaboration with EVRE’s engineers. This joint validation ensures a robust, protocol-level handshake between charger firmware and ergLocale’s smart charging APIs, enabling predictive diagnostics, renewable optimization, and full operational visibility.

Reliable at any Scale: This isn’t plug-and-pray. The integrated stack has been refined through real deployment scenarios to ensure stability, faster rollouts, and non-disruptive EV charging operations.

The joint engineering effort has delivered measurable results across technical integration and real-world deployment:
