The Evolution to Electric Vehicles (EVs) is inevitable. How will the South Africa’s power supply keep up? ☀️Off-grid charging stations are the only viable solution☀️ In the first quarter of this year, there was an approximate 42% increase in EV sales compared to the same period last year. The EV White Paper, published in 2023, emphasises the expected accelerating adoption of EVs across South Africa 📈 We ran the numbers and found that this will require an extra 10 - 15% grid capacity, something our national grid will not be able to sustain. Off-grid charging stations are a critical complement to the influx of EVs in South Africa. Zero Carbon Charge stations will provide a reliable energy supply - and developed at 150 km intervals along national roads, these stations will alleviate range anxiety for EV drivers across the nation, simultaneously helping government achieve its green energy goals 🔋🔋🔋 Stay updated on our progress as we build 120 solar-powered charging stations across South Africa with our newsletter!

Enhancing heavy-duty vehicle technology does more than improve carbon efficiency. It creates a healthier and more enjoyable environment for drivers. Bettering the job of a long-distance truck driver physically and mentally is central to our mission. That’s why our solar-powered truck charging stations are going to be fully equipped with restrooms, overnight parking, high security, refreshment facilities, and more 👌 #zerocarboncharge #zerocarbonlogistics #truckdriverwelfare #volvotrucks #volvo #solarpower #chargingstations
A new, superior in-cab sound system that has to be heard to be believed. #volvotrucks #volvotrucksaero #energyefficiency #aerodynamics
