Transport dept proposes e-bus charging depot in Mysuru division

The transport department submitted a proposal to the Union govt, for the establishment of an e-bus charging depot at KSRTC Mysuru division to support its electric bus fleet. This dedicated charging infrastructure depot is proposed to be built on 4.5 acres of land at Banni Mantap, where KSRTC is constructing a new suburban bus stand using the land available at the sprawling bus depot. The facility is exclusively to support electric buses operating from Mysuru. It will have features like a charging station, e-bus parking lot, restrooms, and several other facilities. About 100 e-buses can park at a time once this facility is set up in Mysuru. Mysuru KSRTC division has bus depots in different areas of the city such as Vijayanagar, Sathagalli, Kuvempu Nagar, and Banni Mantap for its diesel-operated buses, but the proposed depot is dedicated to e-buses. The department sent this proposal to the Union govt as Bengaluru received 2,000 electric buses under the Pradhan Mantri e-drive initiative aimed at pushing sustainable and eco-friendly transport system. Another 2,500 e-buses are expected to join Bengaluru by the end of 2026. Mysuru KSRTC division also received e-buses under the scheme. Speaking to TOI, KSRTC Mysuru divisional manager HT Veeresh said that the department already sent this proposal for the establishment of e-bus depot in Mysuru, after identifying 4.5 acres of land available at Banni Mantap. The PM e-drive scheme initiated by the Union govt at a cost of ₹10,500 cr plans to roll out 14,028 e-buses across nine Indian cities, including Bengaluru, between 2024-26. The scheme also aims to build a network of 72,000 charging points in cities, including Mysuru, along highways to accelerate EV adoption. As the Union govt was also rolling out essential infrastructure such as charging hubs, depots, and related civil facilities to support the incoming fleet, an e-bus depot is also coming up in Mysuru, he said. This e-bus depot is a must for the charging hubs with huge electric plugs exclusively charging electric buses, which are fitted with 145-kilowatt electric motor capacity. This proposal also includes the establishment of charging stations in the city bus stand and KSRTC suburban bus stand, he said.
