Saudi Arabia’s New Murabba Development Company has signed a strategic agreement with Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Company (Eviq) for deployment of EV charging infrastructure across key assets within its giga-project – New Murabba, thus supporting the kingdom’s transition toward sustainable mobility.

A 19-sq-km urban destination, the New Murabba will be built around the concept of sustainability and offer a unique living, working and entertainment experience.

Once completed, New Murabba will boast more than 100,000 residential units as well as over 10,000 hotel room keys along with several premium amenities.

Designed at the heart of the project is the iconic, technological and cultural wonder, The Mukaab, a premium mixed-use landmark that integrates retail, cultural, tourism, hospitality, residential, commercial, and recreational components, said the developer.

A joint venture between the kingdom’s wealth fund PIF and Saudi Electricity Company, Eviq plays a vital role in boosting the EV adoption across the country by building best-in-class infrastructure and creating a nationwide network of fast-charging hubs for electric vehicles across the kingdom. 

Under this deal, Eviq will build its EV charging infrastructure across key destination assets in the kingdom.
