EV charging station developer objecting to Sanral’s proposed policy changes

The developer of a South African across the country network of solar-powered offgrid electrical car (EV) charging stations, Zero Carbon Charge (CHARGE), has formally challenged the South African National Roads Agency Limited’s (Sanral’s) proposed amendments to its Rest and Services Facilities (RSF) policy. CHARGE asserts that the proposed new policy will put private sector investment at danger, postpone the rollout of critical facilities and develop regulatory uncertainty, and do so at a crucial time in the country’s transition to electrical roadway transportation. CHARGE intends to support the adoption of long-distance EVs, allow EV travel and unlock financial development in backwoods, while likewise minimizing the pressure on the national grid. It already has a fully-operational offgrid charging station at Wolmaransstad, on the N12 highway, in the North West province. Two more, situated on the N3 in between Johannesburg and Durban, are scheduled to start operating in May.
