Rollout pace

Barcelona based Wallbox and Saudi startup Turning Point Energy have installed 10,000 AC and DC chargers across residential, commercial and public sites in Saudi Arabia since their partnership began in 2022. Turning Point acts as distributor, certified installer and maintenance partner for Wallbox in the kingdom, supporting deployments linked to agreements with EV brands including BYD and Lucid. The milestone was announced in July 2026.

Why it matters: The 10,000 unit figure demonstrates the scale of charging infrastructure procurement in a Gulf market traditionally associated with oil, signalling emerging opportunities for hardware suppliers and installers in the Middle East. The partnership model combining distribution, installation and maintenance under one entity offers a template for market entry in regions building EV networks from scratch.
