Saeed Al Tayer said: “We are working to achieve the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, may God protect him, to consolidate Dubai’s position as a global leader in the transition towards a green economy and sustainable mobility, and among the world’s most prepared cities for the future. We continue our efforts to strengthen the green transport infrastructure, in support of the UAE Climate Neutral Strategy 2050, and the Dubai Green Transport Strategy 2030, which aims to stimulate the use of environmentally friendly means of transport, In line with the emirate’s goals in the field of sustainability, air quality, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the expansion of charging points within the “Green Charger” initiative contributes to keeping pace with the increasing growth in the number of electric vehicles, and providing a smooth and fast experience for users, thus enhancing Dubai’s position as a global destination to live, work and visit.”
