KARACHI: A Chinese company has announced its plans to set up 3,000 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations in Pakistan. This initiative is part of broader efforts to promote green energy adoption and create employment opportunities.
A meeting to this effect took place between China’s ADM Group and Sindh Energy Minister Nasir Hussain. The minister elaborated on the plans during a press conference.
Speaking to reporters, Hussain said that the proposed EV charging stations in Pakistan would be set up in urban areas and along highways.
Each charging station is expected to cost around Rs8 million, with an initial deposit of Rs1 million required for installation, the minister said.
The initiative is expected to generate around one million jobs, providing a major boost to Pakistan’s employment sector.
ADM Group also plans to establish EV manufacturing plants in Pakistan and has already signed an agreement with the federal government for the development of charging infrastructure.
If the company sets up production facilities in Sindh, the provincial government is considering purchasing at least 20% of the locally manufactured electric vehicles.
