Electric vehicle (EV) charging network operator GridCars is rolling out a R40-million programme to upgrade its national charging network.
CEO Winstone Jordaan says the project will modernise selected charging locations, introduce new-generation, fast-charging technology, as well as add some new charging locations to the GridCars network across South Africa.
“The programme builds on more than a decade of investment in South Africa’s public EV charging infrastructure and the development of the country’s largest public DC charging network.
“We will be doing some sort of refresh at more than 40 sites across South Africa.”
Some of the chargers to be revamped were installed during the earliest years of electric mobility in South Africa.
