Jordan Rolling Out Solar-Powered EV Charging Stations — Goal Of 3,000

The Middle Eastern country of Jordan may not be at the front of many people’s thoughts when queried about electric vehicles, but that may not be the case forever, going by recent moves made by the government and private sector there.

In addition to electric vehicle (EV) purchases being made exempt from various taxes and fees, the Jordanian government recently (last year) entered into agreement with the Chicago-based battery-manufacturer AllCell Technologies, with the intent being, over the next decade, the development of a solar-powered electric vehicle charging network composed of 3,000 different stations.
