Overburdened Oil & Gas Sector in the UAE to Boost the Electric Vehicle Market

The UAE Electric Vehicle Market is set to record around 28.5% CAGR during 2023-28, reveals MarkNtel Advisors in their recent research report. Growing concerns over future energy savings, the ever-rising traffic congestion, and the mounting levels of carbon emissions due to the massive consumption of fossil fuels are the prime aspects projected to drive the market in the future.

Besides, the increasing number of tourists, migrants, & pilgrims in the country is aiding in the expansion of the car rental business, i.e., another prominent aspect projected to spur growth in the electric vehicle industry in the UAE in the coming years. Since the UAE government has undertaken the EV Green Charger initiative, the country is witnessing a rapidly rising interest of people in EVs, and the government is making active efforts toward encouraging EV adoption to reduce GHG emissions & environmental pollution levels.

Automobile manufacturers in the UAE are increasingly investing in developing advanced technologies to reduce EV charging time and offering incentives to buyers. Hence, with the rising penetration of EVs in the country, the need for efficient, convenient, & reliable charging stations is also surging dramatically and, subsequently, creating opportunities for automakers to prepare the necessary infrastructure, which would propel the growth of the electric vehicle industry in the forecast years.

Dubai to become the leader in EV adoption across the UAE through 2028

The active participation of the Dubai government, banks, & auto dealers through incentives, as well as the ever-growing environmental consciousness among people, are the prime aspects driving the adoption of electric vehicles in the emirate. Dubai is rigorously making efforts toward promoting “Green Mobility” to reduce carbon footprints, especially in the transport & logistics sector. It aims to electrify or hybridize around 10% of its vehicles by 2030. A flat rate of 29 Fils a kilowatt-hour (kWh) for EV charging has been set by the DEWA (Dubai Electricity & Water Authority) at its charging stations and also launched a free-charging incentive on its network in order to promote green mobility within the emirate. These trends indicate that Dubai is set to become one of the world leaders in adopting EVs & zero-emission vehicles, which, in turn, would benefit the UAE Electric Vehicle Market in the years to come.
