RIOD Logic Pvt Ltd, an EV charging and energy technology company, has opened a manufacturing facility at Vengoor, Nedumbassery, Kerala, and introduced dynamic UPI-based payments for its electric vehicle (EV) chargers. The facility was inaugurated by Kailash C S, Director, EV Charging, RIOD.
The new facility has an installed production capacity of approximately 2,500 chargers per month. It will manufacture AC EV chargers ranging from 3.3 kW to 22 kW. The company also provides DC charger development and energy products through original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and original design manufacturer (ODM) solutions.
RIOD’s research and development (R&D) teams operate from Infopark Kochi and Infopark Thrissur, where the company develops its chargers, firmware, cloud platforms and payment technologies. With the addition of the Nedumbassery facility, RIOD aims to bring its engineering and manufacturing operations closer together, supporting faster production and delivery.
Through the new facility, the company will also supply completely knocked down (CKD) and semi-knocked down (SKD) kits to partners for local assembly. It will cater to customers in India as well as international markets.
Commenting on the development, Kailash C S, Director, EV Charging at RIOD, said that the facility would enable the company to undertake larger projects and accelerate deliveries in domestic and international markets. He added that the combination of R&D operations at Infopark and manufacturing at Nedumbassery would help partners access both engineering capabilities and volume production.
RIOD has been operating in the EV charging segment since 2020, supporting charging companies and technology partners globally with hardware, firmware and software solutions.
The chargers manufactured at the new facility will support UPI-based payments, enabling users to make payments directly through the chargers. They will also feature a community charging mode for apartments, offices and housing societies that share charging infrastructure among residents, along with secure communication between chargers and cloud platforms.
