Already, those registered for the Green Charger services can charge their vehicles at public charging stations for free until December 31, 2021, while commercial vehicles can do the charging for 29 fils/kWh.

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) has announced that it has come up with a universal smart system for electric vehicle charging stations. Basically, the system can charge all kinds of electric vehicles, whether they use AC or DC, with a single cable and plug.

Patent has been registered for this user-friendly charging station. This simplifies the charging process and makes it as easy as possible for drivers of electric vehicles to charge their cars.

Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA said, “The new patent registered by Dewa will provide a seamless and innovative experience that is consumer- and environment-friendly. It will also raise Dewa’s position as a pioneering world-class utility.”

Drivers do not need to bring their own cables. Instead, the charging station is a one-stop point for all types of electric vehicle, as it automatically adapts the plug and the charging to the vehicle’s requirements.
