🚗 Dubai Electricity & Water Authority - DEWA is advancing Dubai’s EV infrastructure 🔌 with over 740 charging points, supporting the growing number of electric vehicles ⚡️ on the road. As we move toward a greener future, it’s crucial to also push for home charging solutions in residential buildings 🌇, with developers leading the way. Also, installing AC destination chargers will make charging even more seamless, allowing EV owners to power up while they go about their day, being at work, or while shopping and dining—unlike traditional ICE vehicles that require detours to refuel. At ZEEKR UAE by AW Rostamani Group we’re excited to see initiatives like this as we continue to push for e-mobility and sustainability. 🌱 #ElectricVehicles #EVCharging #Zeekr #EMobility #GreenFuture Click for more ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/dpBaTWDj

Dubai Electricity & Water Authority - DEWA (#DEWA) and Parkin, a provider of paid public parking facilities in Dubai, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to expand the network of DEWA’s "EV Green Charger" stations across prime locations managed by Parkin. The agreement aims to enhance sustainability, encourage the use of environmentally friendly electric vehicles (EVs), and improve the customer experience by facilitating convenient vehicle charging. The EV Green Charger program aligns with national policies and strategies to promote electric vehicles and reduce carbon emissions in #Dubai, with an expected 30,000 electric vehicles in Dubai by April 2024. DEWA's EV Green Charger initiative has provided approximately 26,000 MWh of electricity for charging EVs in Dubai, powering a cumulative electric vehicle distance of approximately 130 million kilometers since 2015. Dubai's Green Mobility Strategy 2030 and Dubai Economic Agenda D33 are emphasized, with a focus on developing world-class EV charging infrastructure and exceptional customer service. #Parkin, with over 197,000 parking spaces in Dubai, aims to drive the growth of EV infrastructure while offering environmental and decarbonization benefits through its market-leading position, operational excellence, and innovative technology. Dubai aims to have 1,000 EV charging stations by 2025, with a focus on ultra-fast chargers, further highlighting its commitment to sustainable transportation and the growth of EV infrastructure.

Why #renewable solutions in #Dubai still face unique challenges: electric cars & more Dubai is a hub for innovation and #sustainability, yet the city faces unique challenges when it comes to renewable #energysolutions. One big example? Electric vehicles (EVs). While many global cities are ramping up #EV adoption, electric cars in Dubai remain relatively rare. Why? A key issue is the infrastructure - charging stations. Dubai’s extreme heat puts a massive strain on EV charging infrastructure, with stations struggling to survive the desert temperatures. Battery performance is also a concern, as high heat can degrade them faster, requiring more frequent replacements. But it's not all hurdles. Dubai has made serious strides in renewable energy: • The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is one of the largest solar projects in the world, aiming for a capacity of 5,000 megawatts by 2030. • The RTA's electric bus project and solar-powered streetlights showcase a commitment to greener #urbansolutions. • Looking ahead, Dubai plans to invest in more EV-friendly infrastructure and increase renewable energy sources to meet 25% of its energy needs by 2030. The city is forging ahead with ambitious plans, but factors like climate resilience, infrastructure adaptation, and cost still pose barriers. What are your thoughts on the future of renewable energy in extreme climates like Dubai? Image source: Parking Network (parking.net)

Central to Dubai’s green transition is the role of electric vehicles, which have become a key component of Dubai’s efforts to build a cleaner, more sustainable urban environment. Dubai Electricity & Water Authority - DEWA is making steady progress toward EV adoption in the emirate. The grid controller has expanded burgeoning Dubai’s network of green charger points by adding over 740 charging stations across the emirates for residents to use around the clock.

Dubai Electricity & Water Authority - DEWA has joined forces with Parkin, the leading provider of paid public parking, to expand the city's EV charging network. This collaboration aims to make charging your EV more convenient by installing DEWA's "EV Green Charger" stations in prime locations managed by Parkin. Here's what this means for you: = Easier access to charging stations across Dubai. = Supports Dubai's commitment to sustainability and reducing emissions. = Growing number of EVs in the city - over 30,000 expected by April 2024! This initiative aligns with Dubai's Green Mobility Strategy 2030 and aims to develop a world-class EV charging infrastructure. Parkin's extensive network of parking spaces positions them perfectly to drive this growth. Electric driving in Dubai is getting even better! #EVcharging #ElectricVehicles #SustainableDubai #EcoFriendly #SmartCity #FutureofMobility
