Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) has launched a new service that enables EV (electric vehicle) Green Charger customers to charge their electric vehicles using Dewa’s smart app, by scanning a QR code.

The QR code has been placed at 240 charging stations. In addition to this service, EV Green charger customers can continue to use their Green Charger cards at Dewa charging stations.

This step is part of Dewa’s efforts to enhance its smart services with the latest international technologies, through Dewa’s website and app, for the comfort of customers to complete their transactions anytime and anywhere, easily and safely.

“Dewa adopts innovation, the latest disruptive technologies, and Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies. This ensures its resilience and capacity to adapt and provide solutions that make people’s life easier as well as engaging people in sustainable development and reducing our overall carbon footprint,” said HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dewa.

Dewa launched the EV Green Charger initiative in 2015 to encourage electric vehicle adoption within Dubai and support sustainable transportation to save the environment. Since then, Dewa has installed over 240 EV Green Charging stations all over Dubai. The locations of these charging stations can be found across numerous digital platforms, including Dewa’s website and smart app, digital map platforms, as well as dedicated charging station platforms.

To further support electric vehicle adoption, Dewa is providing free charging for non-commercial EV customers registered in the EV Green Charger Initiative until December 31, 2021. This incentive is exclusively available at public charging stations and not home charging stations. Commercial registered customers, governmental and semi-governmental organisations pay 29 fils for every kilowatt-hour. – TradeArabia News Service
