Upon their arrival at Chery Holdings Group, they were warmly welcomed by Chairman Yin Tongyue, who reiterated Chery Holdings’ resolve for sustainable development of electric vehicles and alternative energy projects.
Memon and Shah hailed Chery’s initiative and expressed Pakistan’s resolve to enhance such collaborations in a bid to meet the objectives of sustainable development. They termed such collaborations as imperative for driving energy efficiency and environmental sustainability in Pakistan.
Due to the initiatives of Memon, Chery Holdings Group has agreed to set up electric vehicle charging stations throughout Sindh. He stated that an EV charging station will be established every fifty kilometers across all districts of Sindh. He added that these charging stations will greatly benefit owners of electric motorcycles, cars, and trucks.
He further said that the transport system in Sindh is being modernised and that their vision is to promote environmentally friendly electric vehicles. Chery Holdings Group has confirmed that EV charging stations will be built in Sindh.
The construction of these stations will provide job opportunities to the people of Sindh as well. Apart from this, an assembly plant for EV mini trucks is being established in Karachi, the statement added.
Memon stated that the establishment of charging stations and assembly plants will create employment opportunities for the local population and make electric vehicles available at affordable prices.
Shah added that Chinese investors have assured full cooperation on solar energy projects in rural areas of Sindh. The solarisation of homes will help reduce the energy crisis and serve as a significant milestone in promoting environmentally friendly energy solutions.
He said that solar systems are being provided to poor families to help meet their daily energy needs. The solarisation of homes will enable ordinary people to easily fulfill their electricity requirements.
Shah further said that the solarisation of homes will help the common man save on expensive electricity bills and significantly reduce problems like load shedding. It will also boost the local economy, create new employment opportunities, and contribute to the socio-economic development of rural areas.
