Dubai Municipality, in partnership with Emarat EV Charging Stations Company (UAEV), has launched a strategic $40.5 million (AED 150 million) initiative to deploy electric vehicle (EV) supercharging stations across 600 parking spaces in public parks, beaches, and recreational facilities.
The initiative underscores Dubai Municipality’s ongoing commitment to creating future-ready public spaces that promote sustainability, encourage environmentally responsible lifestyles, and enhance the overall quality of life for residents and visitors across the emirate.
Aligned with the objectives of the Greenery and Parks Strategy 2040, the project integrates EV charging infrastructure into high-footfall recreational destinations, positioning Dubai’s public spaces as active enablers of the city’s sustainable mobility ecosystem.
The project is also in line with the Dubai Economic Agenda D33, facilitating strong private sector participation in the development of sustainable urban infrastructure.
The first flagship phase will see the installation of 75 EV supercharging stations across 150 parking bays over the next two years. These facilities will be strategically deployed across major destination parks, neighborhood parks, and public beaches, ensuring wide geographic coverage and convenient access for both residents and visitors.
