**Dubai**: Parkin Company PJSC and the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority announce a collaboration to enhance the emirate’s EV charging infrastructure. New Green Charger stations will facilitate seamless payments and promote sustainable mobility, part of Dubai’s Green Mobility Strategy 2030.
Parkin Company PJSC, recognized as Dubai’s largest provider of paid public parking facilities, has announced a new collaboration with the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) to enhance the electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure throughout the emirate. This initiative is positioned as part of Dubai’s broader efforts to promote green mobility and sustainability.
The partnership’s initial phase will see DEWA install a series of new EV Green Charger stations, slated to begin in the first quarter of 2025. These charging stations will utilise alternating current (AC) technology, each with a capacity of 22 kilowatts, allowing for simultaneous charging of two vehicles. The strategic positioning of these stations will be in prime parking areas managed by Parkin, focusing on high-density residential zones A and C, where access to EV charging currently remains limited.
A notable enhancement for customers will be the seamless payment experience facilitated by Parkin’s app, which will enable payments for both the EV charging tariffs and parking fees to be managed through a linked digital wallet. This integration is anticipated to streamline the user experience, thereby fostering a greater adoption of electric vehicles in the area.
Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, Managing Director and CEO of DEWA, remarked that this initiative resonates with the Dubai Green Mobility Strategy 2030 as well as the Dubai Social Agenda 33. He expressed that it positions Dubai as a prominent global destination for sustainable living. Concurrently, Eng. Mohamed Al Ali, CEO of Parkin, reiterated the company’s commitment to supporting the transition to electric vehicles while also unlocking new growth opportunities via advanced infrastructure.
Currently, DEWA operates nearly 740 EV Green Charger points throughout Dubai, with an ambition to expand this network to 1,000 charging stations by the end of 2024. The partnership between Parkin and DEWA represents a significant milestone in the UAE’s efforts to achieve its climate targets and promote sustainable mobility within the city.
