The commuters can rent a power bank and take it with them during their journey. Special automated machines are being installed at RRTS stations to facilitate this service, the statement said.
Passengers can rent a power bank from these machines and return it at any similar machine across the NCR. This facility addresses the growing need for mobile phone charging, providing a convenient solution for today's commuters, it stated.

The operation and management of the Namo Bharat train are handled by 'DB-RRTS Operations India'. Special attention is given to the comfort and facilities for passengers on the Namo Bharat train and at RRTS stations, it said.

"People can charge their mobile phones by renting a power bank from designated machines. Various rental plans are available, allowing you to choose the one that best suits your needs. Power bank machines have already been installed at many locations, and they will soon be fully operational at the designated sites," the statement said.
The rental power bank facility is currently available in the unpaid area of Sahibabad station, making it accessible to everyone without the need to purchase a train ticket. Anyone can visit the station and take advantage of this service. To use the facility, people need to install the 'A3 Charge' mobile app on their phones.
Registration is done using a phone number. After registration, the app will guide users to the nearest power bank machine, where they can scan a QR code to access a power bank, it stated.
Various rental plans are available, allowing users to choose a plan that best suits their needs. Depending on the chosen plan, the power bank can be swapped daily for a fully charged one.
