Khaberni - ADNOC Distribution has launched the sixth largest ultra-fast charging complex for electric vehicles in the world.
The company also revealed its future plan to establish a rapid electric charging network in the UAE by the end of 2027.
This launch coincides with the start of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2026, where world leaders gather to discuss the future of sustainable energy and infrastructure.

The massive electric vehicle charging complex is located in Seih Shuaib on Emirates Road (E11) between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and includes 60 ultra-fast charging points capable of charging most electric vehicles from zero to 80% in about 20 minutes.
This complex is the largest in the Middle East, Africa, and Turkey, and the sixth largest ultra-fast charging complex for electric vehicles in the world, becoming the most strategic step in supporting ADNOC Distribution's ambitious plan to develop a world-class infrastructure for charging electric vehicles on the highways in the UAE.
Starting from this ambitious vision, ADNOC Distribution plans to open 20 fast electric vehicle charging complexes by the end of 2027, of which 15 complexes are expected to be inaugurated by the end of 2026, on the main national highways, enabling electric vehicles to travel easily and over long distances, and supporting the country's goals in transitioning to smart and sustainable mobility.
