Through delivering innovative, clean, safe, and affordable mobility solutions to its customers, employees, and planet, Stellantis aims to become the industry champion in climate change and aims to achieve net carbon Zero by 2038 with 50% carbon emission reduction.

Siemens has developed technology that will accelerate the adoption of EVs by speeding up charging times and creating smarter, more efficient power grids.

In June 2022, the United Arab Emirates’ Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure said it would deploy ten Siemens Sicharge D 160 kW ultra-fast chargers on the highways in Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain and Fujairah.

All are cloud-connected devices which allow operators to monitor and manage the chargers remotely.

Markus Leithe, Group MD, Stellantis Middle East, said: “We are proud to partner with Siemens as we continue our path to full electrification execution and offer advanced technology at affordable prices such as deployment of EV charging technologies.

Helmut von Struve, CEO, Siemens in the Middle East: “We look forward to working with Stellantis Middle East on this important partnership that demonstrates our commitment to supporting sustainability programs across the region."

“Siemens is proud to be a part of initiatives that embrace an electrical mobility ecosystem and contribute to the net zero targets set by various countries in the Middle East.”

The partnership between Siemens and Stellantis in the Middle East will also entail technical workshops, trainings, and joint customer visits, with the aim of driving electrification in the region as the people and governments across the Middle East increasingly focus on protecting the environment.
