Schneider Electric and ELECTROMIN to drive the transformation of Electric Mobility adoption in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Schneider Electric and ELECTROMIN will look to promote and expand the scope for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations nationwide 

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Schneider Electric, and ELECTROMIN have partnered together to drive growth for a range of technologies in the Kingdom’s electric vehicle (EV) sector. The agreement aims to accelerate the realization of sustainable and zero-emission mobility in the Kingdom by creating an integrated EV ecosystem that offers an affordable, unique one-stop electric mobility as a service (eMaaS) solution, by providing access to advanced technology, products, infrastructure, and maintenance. 

This comes as part of the efforts both companies are undertaking to contribute to and support the national efforts of promoting sustainable technologies that move the Kingdom towards its Vision 2030 goals, utilize clean energy to reduce the country’s carbon emissions, and create tens of thousands of new jobs in the green economy space. Saudi Arabia’s Green Initiative aims to reduce the country’s carbon emissions in the region by 60 percent through the use of green technologies and reducing carbon emissions from the transportation sector will be crucial to the country achieving its net-zero goals.

ELECTROMIN is a leading technology & e-mobility solutions provider focusing on providing a complete turnkey solution from in-depth consultancy through to network operation and maintenance, the building of charging network throughout the country’s main urban areas to offer a seamless charging experience for EV drivers, and the provision of global industry expertise to provide the best knowledge and experience to the Kingdom’s fast-growing EV sector.  

 “Sustainability and electric vehicles are among the two of the fastest-growing segments in the coming years, and we wanted to partner with a global leader in this space,” said Kalyana Sivagnanam, Chief Executive Officer, ELECTROMIN. “Schneider Electric has long been a pioneer in the green technology space globally and in Saudi Arabia, and we are excited to be working with the Schneider Electric team in Saudi Arabia to accelerate this transition.” 

“Saudi Arabia is leading the way when it comes to having a comprehensive sustainability vision, and by working with ELECTROMIN, we’re looking forward to being able to contribute to the country achieving this green transition,” said Mohamed Shaheen, Cluster President Saudi Arabia, and Yemen, Schneider Electric. “Schneider Electric’s charging technologies are installed throughout the Kingdom, in malls, offices, residential developments, and government buildings, and we both see the enormous potential for solutions in the electric vehicle space, and we’ll be working closely together to support our Saudi customers as they move towards becoming cleaner and greener.”
