SAP, a global leader in enterprise software, continues to advance its sustainability agenda across its global operations. In India—where electric mobility is gaining momentum—the company identified a critical infrastructure gap: the absence of scalable, workplace-based EV charging.

SAP’s goal was to equip its Bangalore campus—one of its largest globally—with a future-ready EV charging ecosystem. But the ambition went beyond simply offering convenience to employees. The vision was to embed the physical and digital foundations of e-mobility into the fabric of SAP’s green campus strategy _ The challenge: deliver an infrastructure that was secure, scalable, and seamlessly integrated with SAP’s internal IT and compliance systems—all while ensuring the user experience was intuitive enough to drive real behavioral change._

To achieve this, SAP required a partner capable of delivering:
• High-volume charging capacity across both two- and four-wheeler segments
• Enterprise-grade data privacy and internal server hosting
• A user interface and workflow simple enough to support widespread adoption

To address these needs, SAP partnered with Bolt.Earth to implement a fully customized solution—designed to meet both physical and digital requirements across the Bangalore campus.

Hardware deployment across the campus
• SAP deployed a total of 76 EV chargers
• 56 4-Wheeler fast chargers for four-wheelers 
• 20 Smart Sockets(3.3kW) chargers for two-wheelers 

The chargers were installed strategically across parking zones to ensure easy access and optimal usage, reflecting the varied commuting patterns of the campus workforce.

Secure data architecture with internal server hosting
To meet SAP’s stringent data privacy standards, Bolt.Earth’s solution was customized so that all charger data would be hosted entirely on SAP’s internal servers. SAP retained full control over software integration and data management—ensuring complete independence from third-party cloud environments.

This model preserved data sovereignty while delivering real-time functionality to campus administrators.

Smart feature enablement and employee training
In addition to core charging functionality, the system included smart LED indicators and over-the-air (OTA) update support to ensure maintainability and performance. SAP employees were trained to manage hardware use, troubleshoot issues, and operate system features confidently—enhancing day-to-day usability.
