Magenta Announces ChargeGrid Prisma For Residential Complexes

Magenta has introduced ChargeGrid Prisma for large residential complexes. This solution is developed specifically at solving the complex and multi-faceted problems for EV charging at residential societies where not everyone has dedicated parking slots. This situation forced EV enthusiasts to resort to pulling wires from homes to parking areas; this was not only extremely unsafe, but legality issues were also involved.

ChargeGrid Prisma solves this challenge by addressing multiple issues and involving multiple stakeholders. This EV charging hardware is amenable to multiuser profile. The user interfacing software integrates with the existing Facility management software of residential societies and reduces the pain of the society in managing the EV charging process.

Magenta over the last one yar worked with multiple RWA (Residential welfare Associations), Apartment Federations and EV owners to understand the problem and solve each of these challenges. The outcome is a unique model which leverages the charging assets for EV charging across multiple users.

While the pilots are in progress in multiple cities, one of the first to fully go live is at Gundecha Trillium, a large and forward-looking housing complex in Mumbai. This pilot was supported by Adani Electricity which is the utility supplier in the area.

Speaking about this initiative Kerman Karkaria, Vice President – Special Projects at Adani Electricity mentioned “Making adoption of EV by facilitating EV charging is a key mandate at Adani Electricity and we are running multiple initiatives on this. Adani is proud to be work with Magenta in deploying solutions to make this possible at one of our key customer end for residential EV charging. We will continue to work on EV deployment solutions for easy accessible to our consumers.”

Speaking about this unique solution Maxson Lewis, MD of Magenta said, “Magenta is committed to solving EV charging challenges with Made in India, Made for India solutions. We are a company which is actually talking to the users and understanding their paint points towards EV and solving them one at a time happy. This EV charging solution specifically for Residential Societies required solving multiple challenges across multiple stakeholders and we are happy that this initiative found so much goodwill and support from Adani Electricity and from even from housing society owners most of whom who do not have an EV yet but had to support such a green initiative. We will be launching this product, service and solutions across select cities in India. We want to ‘empower electric mobility in India’ in its truest sense.”
