Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), in collaboration with Terra Tech Ltd, has launched a plan to install multiple battery-swapping stations for electric bikes at key operational zones and strategic locations across the emirate.
This initiative underscores Dubai RTA’s strong commitment to promoting the adoption of sustainable commercial transport and encouraging delivery companies to embrace greener, more eco‑friendly alternatives for their operations.
Terra Tech Ltd is a leading MENA-based B2B micro-mobility technology start-up specializing in the design and deployment of advanced battery-swapping stations, paving the way for smarter, cleaner, and more efficient urban transportation solutions.
Marking the first of its kind in the region, the initiative aims to accelerate the transition towards zero-emission fleets and set a benchmark for sustainable mobility practices in the Middle East.
The partnership between RTA and Terra Tech Ltd includes the development of an integrated system to support the delivery sector and aligns with the operators’ requirements for comprehensive charging solutions. The plan will empower the delivery sector in Dubai to transition towards eco-friendly electric solutions, while reducing the total cost of ownership for the operators.

“The initiative aligns with the objectives of the Commercial and Logistics Land Transport Strategy 2030 of reducing carbon emissions by 30 percent by infrastructure development of 36 locations in the emirate to meet the sector’s operational needs and introduce an operational model tailored to the requirements of delivery companies. The collaboration with Terra supports the development of alternative sustainable energy solutions and enhances the emirate’s readiness to adopt future technologies and operational practices that help reduce emissions, minimize noise pollution, and improve service quality for both citizens and residents alike. Thus, we invite our partners in the delivery and commercial sectors to utilize this initiative and work alongside us towards a more efficient and sustainable future.”
Husam Al Zammar, CEO of Terra said that, “RTA has always been achieving major accomplishments in infrastructure and sustainable transport services for all segments of society, particularly in the regulation, expansion, and development of the delivery sector, which plays a vital role in driving the growth of Dubai’s GDP.”
The Terra CEO further expressed appreciation for RTA’s confidence in their battery-swapping solutions for the delivery sector and highlighted the company’s commitment to collaborating on empowering Dubai’s electric bike delivery ecosystem.
