The MoU aims to enhance the Kingdom’s EV charging infrastructure for electric vehicles and aligns with both parties’ efforts to improve sustainable transportation infrastructure in the Kingdom, which is in line with the Saudi Vision 2030 and the environmental sustainability goals.
The MoU, signed by Mohammed bin Bakr Qazzaz, CEO of EVIQ, and Jihad bin Abdulrahman Al-Qadi, CEO of Riyadh Development Company during the Private Sector Forum 2025, will develop EV charging station sites within Riyadh Development Company’s properties, supporting Riyadh’s transformation into a smart and sustainable city while optimizing the company’s assets to enhance sustainable investment returns.
