Raghav Bharadwaj, CEO, Bolt.Earth at the launch of Blaze DC
EV charging company Bolt.Earth has launched Blaze DC, a universal DC fast charger for electric two-and three-wheelers. The new DC series of chargers is engineered to provide high-speed interoperable charging solutions for two-and three-wheelers, which make up 80 per cent of the country’s EV fleet.
Bolt.Earth is a charging solutions provider whose charging network supports 2, 3, and 4 wheelers with both standard and fast charging options. The Bengaluru-based company’s product offerings include a Bolt.Earth charging app, a Charger Management System (CMS) and EV charger discovery APIs for businesses.
Designed and manufactured entirely in India, the Blaze DC charger supports Type 6 and LECCS Type 7 connectors, ensuring compatibility with top EV brands such as Ather, Ola, Ultraviolette, Hero MotoCorp, Matter Motors, and Simple Energy.
“At Bolt.Earth, we’ve always believed that true EV adoption in India cannot happen without solving for the everyday commuter—be it auto-rickshaw drivers, food delivery executives, or small business owners who rely on two- and three-wheelers. Blaze DC is a solution built for them, by Indian engineers, with Indian infrastructure in mind.” said Raghav Bharadwaj, CEO of Bolt.Earth.
The company aims to deploy 25k chargers in 1 year across India. Currently Bolt.earth has a footprint of over 37 thousand charging points across 1,700 cities, serving nearly 2.24 lakh active EV users.
The new DC charger will offer a plug-and-play solution tuned for Indian grid conditions with charging speeds up to 120 km in 15 minutes on the 12kW variant. Beyond speed, Blaze DC is also designed for easy serviceability and maintenance, with its modular build facilitating quicker repairs and real-time error detection.
Bolt.earth aims to support 90 per cent of fast-charging-enabled two- and three-wheeler EVs within a year. The company believes that with the launch of Blaze DC, small business owners, gig economy workers, and daily commuters can benefit from quick and affordable charging at public stations.
