Lahore gets 32 new electric vehicle charging stations - details revealed

The expansion comes after LESCO provided electricity connections to the stations.

LESCO provides electricity connections to charging stations

The Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) has provided electricity connections to 32 electric vehicle charging stations across the city. These stations have a combined approved electricity load of 1,015 kilowatts.

Their charging capacities range from 60kW to 202kW, allowing electric vehicle owners to access different charging options. The new facilities are expected to improve the availability of charging services in Lahore.

LESCO department speeds up the process

LESCO’s Metering and Testing (M&T) Department played an important role in providing electricity connections to the charging stations. The department helped complete the required work so the facilities could start operating.

The company has also given the department a special task to speed up the process. The aim is to ensure that more electric vehicle charging stations become operational without unnecessary delays.

More support for electric vehicles in Lahore

The expansion will strengthen Lahore’s electric vehicle charging network. It will also provide better support to people who are switching from petrol-powered vehicles to electric vehicles.

The availability of more charging stations can make electric vehicles a practical option for more people. However, further expansion and reliable charging services will be important as the number of electric vehicles increases.
