Bengaluru, India | July 31, 2025 — Bolt.Earth, recognized as India’s largest EV charging network, has partnered with the Guruvayur Devaswom Board to establish a dedicated EV charging infrastructure at the renowned Guruvayur Temple in Kerala.

The charging setup is specifically designed to accommodate the movement patterns of visitors, focusing on the types of electric vehicles (EVs) utilized for last-mile connectivity and the extended dwell times of devotees. The installation features a combination of standard 3.3 kW EV charging sockets, suitable for e-rickshaws and two-wheelers, alongside 7–11 kW AC fast chargers to cater to four-wheelers arriving from various regions, including Kerala and Tamil Nadu. This strategic mix guarantees reliable charging options for both local and outstation visitors.

All charging stations are integrated with the Bolt.Earth mobile application, accessible on both Play Store and App Store. Guruvayur, one of India’s most frequented temple towns, experiences daily foot traffic between 15,000 and 30,000, with numbers soaring to over 50,000 during festival periods. Despite the increasing number of EV users in Kerala and neighboring states, the availability of dependable charging solutions at pilgrimage sites has been limited.

Raghav Bharadwaj, CEO of Bolt.Earth, emphasized the significance of this initiative, stating, “During peak seasons at Guruvayur, devotees often spend four hours or more on the premises, especially during festivals like Seeveli. This presents a natural window for EV Charging.” He noted that the location has historically lacked reliable infrastructure, making such deployments critical for supporting the rising number of electric vehicles and ensuring that advancements reach the areas frequented by people daily.

The installation aims to fill the infrastructure gap, allowing EV-driving pilgrims to visit without the concern of range anxiety interrupting their spiritual experience. This initiative is part of a broader national movement to enhance India’s religious infrastructure, mirroring successful implementations in other high-traffic spiritual areas, such as Uttarakhand’s Char Dham circuit. As EV adoption spreads beyond urban locales, temples like Guruvayur are becoming pivotal in developing inclusive and sustainable mobility infrastructure.

Bolt.Earth’s deployment showcases its operational reliability, boasting zero hardware failures to date, supported by top-tier customer service available 24/7. As the leading EV infrastructure provider in India, Bolt.Earth offers comprehensive solutions for homes, businesses, and fleets, including partnerships with major companies like Tata, Bajaj, Mahindra, American Express, SAP, Brigade Group, and Sobha Realty.
