Ethio Telecom has officially launched a high-speed electric vehicle (EV) charging station in Addis Ababa, located on the main Megengna-Bole road. The station is designed to support Ethiopia's growing EV ecosystem and promote green initiatives, according to CEO Frehiwot Tamiru.
This modern charging station can accommodate up to 32 EVs simultaneously. Drivers can charge their vehicles at a speed of 1 kilometer per second without assistance and pay using the Telebirr super app.
Ethio Telecom emphasized that the station uses its own transformer and solar power, ensuring it doesn't strain the local power grid. The company plans to undertake further projects to strengthen Ethiopia's digital and green transformation.
