Etihad Water and Electricity (EtihadWE) has entered into a partnership with the Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT) to provide electric vehicle charging stations on HCT campuses. This collaboration supports the UAE’s sustainability goals and is part of the launch of UAEV, a joint venture between EtihadWE and the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure.

The electric vehicle charging stations to be installed on HCT campuses will include advanced charging systems that offer fast and reliable charging options. The agreement was signed by representatives from both EtihadWE and HCT, highlighting the commitment to environmental sustainability and green transport systems.
