Sustainability in public places segment – A necessity for the modern enterprise.
With the world shifting to an eco-friendlier lifestyle, the commercial segment is following to meet the needs of its evolving consumers and visitors. Public places all over the world are quick to adapt new-age practices. It is imperative to note that the rise of electric mobility is underpinned by demands from consumers and businesses alike to become more sustainable.
According to a Boston Consulting Group study, without substantial additions of adjacent services to their business models, at least a quarter of service stations worldwide are at risk of closure by 2035. As a result, major industry players are investing in EV charging infrastructure across the globe, where Shell announced the installation of 500,000 on-street EV charging points by 2025 and BP declared an increase in its network of EV charging points to 70,000 by 2030. By installing EV charging facilities, fuel retail stations not only meet the needs of existing ICE vehicle owners but also position themselves for growth as the EV market expands in the future.
In accordance with upcoming regulations by MOMRAH, fuel stations need qualification by adherence to regulations regarding availability of EV chargers. The charging equipment should be approved by the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO), and the vendor should be approved by the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC). This requirement ensures that EV owners can access reliable and safe charging solutions in compliance with industry standards.
