In a significant development for Pakistan’s green energy landscape, a leading Chinese firm has announced an investment of $350 million to establish 3,000 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations nationwide. The initiative is set to revolutionize the country’s EV infrastructure, aiming to promote sustainable mobility and reduce carbon emissions.
The project will be rolled out in phases over the next five years, focusing on major urban centers and highways initially. The Chinese company will collaborate with local partners to ensure seamless implementation, job creation, and technology transfer.
Officials have welcomed this investment, highlighting its role in reducing Pakistan’s reliance on fossil fuels and fostering the adoption of EVs. This development aligns with the government’s goal of achieving a greener economy by 2030, as outlined in its Electric Vehicle Policy.
Experts predict that the project could lead to a substantial increase in EV adoption in Pakistan, providing a much-needed boost to the local auto industry and setting a benchmark for sustainable transportation.
