KUWAIT CITY, July 20: In reaction to the decision of the Minister of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy Ali Al-Mousa to form a committee to set controls for charging electric cars locally, officials from car companies and specialists in electrical cars highlighted the need for all concerned parties to cooperate to make the service successful, as it will lead to a reduction in the value of fuel subsidies, and limit carbon emissions and environmental pollution, reports Al-Rai daily.

During an interview, many company officials agreed on the importance of studying the experiences of the neighboring countries that preceded Kuwait in providing electric car charging stations, setting controls that encourage local agencies to provide the service quickly, and solving all obstacles they faced technically, financially and economically. In this regard, the Director of Marketing at GMC Behbehani Motors Tony Trantic stressed the need to provide electric car chargers in commercial complexes, ministries, cooperative societies, hospitals and government agencies, as well as to ensure large capacities for them in the parking lots of these entities.
