Switch Mobility Ltd (‘Switch’), the next-generation carbon neutral electric bus and light commercial vehicle company, has partnered with JSW to introduce electric buses for employee transportation in India. This is the first significant and largest electric bus order in the country for employee transportation, with 71 buses being delivered to JSW Steel, for their Vijayanagar plant. Switch Mobility will own and oversee entire operations including setting-up of charging infrastructure and requisite maintenance efficacy, over a 12-year contract period. The first set of electric buses were flagged-off by Sajjan Jindal, Chairman and Managing Director – JSW Group of companies and Mahesh Babu, Global CEO – Switch Mobility Ltd.

Mahesh Babu, Global CEO – Switch Mobility Ltd, said,

 “The private bus market in India, is one of the key transportation markets in the country constituting 70% market share, of which the private electric bus market is expected to be valued at ₹60 billion in the next five years. With the positive reception to Switch EiV 12, we are glad to enter the employee transportation space and be a part of the sustainable journey with JSW Steel. This partnership with JSW is an important milestone for Switch Mobility, as we deliver our first and largest private bus order in the country.

We are in talks with more corporates across the country who are showing keen interest to join hands in this sustainable journey’’.
