The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited has announced plans to deploy between 50 and 70 smart, self-service filling stations across the country within the next six months.
The company said the initiative was part of a broader plan to transform its conventional retail outlets into modern energy and mobility hubs offering petrol, electric vehicle charging, liquefied petroleum gas, compressed natural gas and other services.
The Executive Vice President, Downstream, NNPC Limited, Mumuni Dagazau, disclosed this on Thursday in Abuja while speaking at the commissioning of a technology-driven service station with an electric vehicle charging facility.
The mega station is located along Bill Clinton Drive, Airport Road, Abuja.
Dagazau said the newly commissioned station was the first of several smart outlets to be introduced nationwide, adding that the concept was aimed at moving beyond traditional petrol retailing to provide customers with multiple energy and mobility services at a single location.
