    Blue Energy Motors to invest Rs 3,500 crore in Maharashtra EV truck plant

    MUMBAI: What’s better than a zero-emission truck? How about 30,000 of them.

    Blue Energy Motors Ltd., a key partner in Essar’s green mobility initiative, has inked a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Maharashtra. Signed at the prestigious World Economic Forum in Davos, this ambitious partnership paves the way for a Rs 3,500 crore investment to transform the state into a powerhouse for electric vehicle (EV) truck manufacturing.

    Set to kick off in the 2025-26 fiscal year, this state-of-the-art facility will churn out 30,000 advanced EV trucks annually. But that’s not all. The plant will feature cutting-edge research and development capabilities, a battery-pack line, a motor manufacturing unit, and its own charging infrastructure.

    The investment doesn’t just promise innovation—it’s a win for the economy too. With 4,000 direct jobs in the pipeline, this initiative is set to energise Maharashtra’s green energy transition while cementing its status as a global hub for clean mobility solutions.

    Why make this move now? Blue Energy Motors CEO Anirudh Bhuwalka explained, “We are excited to announce this landmark partnership with the Government of Maharashtra. This collaboration represents a crucial milestone in our ambitions of pioneering green trucking in partnership with Essar’s green mobility initiative. It reflects our shared vision for a cleaner, greener and a more sustainable future. Our investment will not only reaffirm Maharashtra’s position as a global hub for advanced clean mobility solutions but also will contribute to job creation and economic growth.”

    Blue Energy Motors’ AI and ML-enabled EV commercial vehicles are more than just trucks; they’re game-changers. Designed for unmatched efficiency and reliability, these zero-emission giants promise to revolutionise heavy-duty trucking while significantly slashing carbon footprints.

    The new facility will employ industry-leading manufacturing practices, ensuring that the trucks deliver on both performance and sustainability.

    The transition to green energy isn’t just about saving the planet—it’s about smart economics too. This investment by Blue Energy Motors aligns with global goals to combat climate change and champion sustainable development.

    Is this the spark India needs to electrify its mobility future? With Maharashtra leading the charge, the answer might just be a resounding yes.

    As industries worldwide embrace sustainability, this initiative marks a significant step forward for India’s EV ambitions. Will this partnership set the benchmark for green mobility solutions across the globe? Blue Energy Motors is betting Rs 3,500 crore that it will.

    Along with Hindi, English, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil and Kannada news and business channels, the campaign is live on digital and social media platforms engaging the public with its message.

    The film depicts the journey of a globe, demonstrating the abuse and damage that our planet goes through day in and day out thanks to a range of human activities such as deforestation, construction, industrialisation, and urbanisation. By the end of its journey, the globe is soiled and battered, until two children representing the future generation – rescue it, clean it, and hug it demonstrating the love and care that we need to have for our planet. The video concludes with a strong message: ‘Embrace mother earth, love our planet. Switch to green and clean energy’ with the words “hold me tight” being sung in the background.

The film seeks to inspire a profound appreciation for our planet. The young children cleaning the globe in the film serve as a powerful symbol of how small acts can become catalysts for a big change. We strive to make this a movement to encourage each one of us to become custodians of planet earth – the only home we will ever have.”

In this piece of communication the problems are clearly highlighted and Tata Power sends out an unequivocal message of urgent action at an individual level as well as at a societal level.”

    Rediffusion Executive Director Carol Goyal who oversees the films portfolio added, “We’ve kept the messaging real. It is hard hitting. And the punishment to the globe is shown in situations we see everyday but don’t do anything about.
