GreenParking, the first one-stop-shop parking company in the Middle East that provides environmental-friendly products and solutions, said it has been selected by Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) to supply electro vehicle (EV) chargers at all its stations across the UAE.

The Dubai-based company said with the clinching of the contract, it has become one of the main suppliers of EV-chargers to Dewa, thus providing a major boost to the Dubai government's smart city initiative.

Eight EV chargers have already been installed at Dewa stations and a further 84 charging facilities are being planned across Dubai, said a statement from GreenParking.

Each station will have the capacity to charge two vehicles simultaneously, it added.

GreenParking's EV chargers have the largest number of installations in Europe and now it has brought this expertise in eco-friendly parking systems to the Middle East, said a senior official.

"GreenParking is delighted to be a provider for Dewa’s EV charging facilities. As the only specialist in environmental-friendly parking technologies in the region, we look forward to further cementing our fundamental role in helping to transform Dubai into the Smart City of the future," remarked Adham Ghandour, the head of sales and projects of GreenParking.

He pointed out that the EV chargers have been specifically modified to function effectively in the Middle Eastern climate.

"These breakthroughs have allowed us to plan installation of EV chargers across the city. Our long-term goal is to bring about a shift in energy efficiency in the region to fit the GreenParking concept of a greener tomorrow," stated Ghandour.

"We are currently looking for partners in a joint venture to build our own multi-storey green car-parking facility in which every element will have an environmental benefit," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
