Pakistan targets 3,000 public EV charging stations by 2030 under new policy
By Eve
Pakistan's government plans to install around 3,000 public EV charging stations nationwide by 2030 under its New Energy Vehicle Policy 2025 to 2030, the Ministry of Industries and Production told the National Assembly. The initial phase includes 40 fast charging stations along motorways and the N-5 National Highway, with charging points planned at approximately 50 kilometre intervals on major highways. The policy also covers battery swapping stations for two wheelers and three wheelers, and incentives to attract private sector investment in the charging network.
Why it matters
The 3,000 station target and phased motorway rollout signal a structured procurement pipeline for charging infrastructure suppliers and operators entering the Pakistani market. The inclusion of battery swapping alongside conventional charging creates diverse commercial opportunities for CPOs and equipment vendors across multiple vehicle segments.

Go Eve raises £750,000 for DockChain fleet charging technology
Wolverhampton based Go Eve, a spin out from University College Dublin and Imperial College London, has secured £750,000 (US$1 million) from Innovate UK and private investors for its patented DockChain technology. The system charges multiple vehicles sequentially from a single DC charger, reducing the need for new charging stations at every bay and minimising electrical infrastructure requirements. The 18 month project will develop hardware, software and firmware to enable more reliable control over charging sessions without physically unplugging vehicles, with existing units upgradable to the new technology.
Why it matters
The technology addresses a critical infrastructure challenge as UK commercial fleet EV penetration is projected to reach 30% to 50% by 2030, allowing fleet operators to scale fast charging capacity without proportional increases in grid connections or charging hardware. For charge point operators and fleet managers, DockChain offers a route to expand charging provision within existing electrical capacity constraints and parking footprints.
LAZ Parking launches joint venture with EverCharge for multi-unit dwelling EV charging and dynamic load management
LAZ Parking has formed a joint venture with EverCharge, a subsidiary of indiGOtech, to deploy EV charging for apartment and condo residents across LAZ's portfolio of around 2.1 million parking spaces at 5,700 locations in 639 cities. The offering, called LAZ Multifamily EV Charging Powered by Evercharge SmartPower, will use EverCharge's dynamic load management technology to enable deployment of up to five times more charging ports per power source. LAZ already has a target to deploy 50,000 Level 2 EV charging stations across its US and Canada real estate portfolio through a partnership with Epic Charging.
Why it matters
This joint venture opens a significant procurement pipeline for multi-unit dwelling charging infrastructure, with LAZ's 2.1 million parking space portfolio representing one of the largest addressable markets in North America. The dynamic load management approach could reduce installation costs and accelerate deployment timelines, making multi-family charging projects more commercially viable for property owners and CPOs.
Raw Charging opens 16-bay rapid hub in Dudley with 150kW and 300kW chargers
Raw Charging has launched its largest rapid EV hub in Dudley, installing 16 ultra-rapid charging bays in Tipton that comprise eight 150kW and eight 300kW chargers, including two priority bays. Developed with Hubber, the site supports contactless payment and all major EV apps. Raw's network now covers more than 500 sites and over 2,500 charging bays across the UK, with partnerships including Bentley Bridge and Leamington Spa Shopping Park.
Why it matters
The 16-bay Tipton hub marks a significant rollout milestone for Raw Charging in the Black Country and demonstrates continued expansion of high-power charging infrastructure for drivers without home charging access. The scale and power mix, alongside partnerships with major retail destinations, signals growing CPO confidence in hub-based deployment models.
