Partnership to expand EV charging infrastructure in MEA

Admiral Energy, a firm that specialises in developing and engineering integrated zero-emission energy solutions, has announced a major deal with Autel to bring Electric Vehicle chargers to the Middle East and Africa (MEA) markets.

The chargers, which have been tested in the UAE, will cater to the growing demand for Electric Vehicles in the region. The UAE government alone anticipates that 70,000 EV charging points will be required by 2030 to cater to the increasing demand for green transport.

The strategic partnership represents a commitment by Admiral Energy (part of Admiral Global DMCC) to deliver chargers to the UAE from July 2023, with plans to roll out the chargers across the region itself. With COP28 fast approaching, the news announcement highlights the ambitions of both Admiral Energy and Autel to service the rapidly growing Electric Vehicle sector in the Middle East as companies turn towards greener solutions for their commercial fleets.

High speed DC charging solutions

The standalone high speed DC charging solutions will be made available for fleet and commercial applications, with Admiral Energy working closely with Autel to develop chargers that are specifically suited to the GCC market. The Electric Vehicle market in the GCC is expected to reach $6.7 billion by
