Loop Global to install ‘advanced’ EV charging stations at Reem Mall

Tech-enabled mega-mall to lead the way in meeting UAE’s new EV charging mandate

Loop Global Inc., a U.S.-based provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions with regional headquarters in Abu Dhabi, has announced plans to install advanced EV charging stations at Reem Mall, the premier retail destination renowned for its cutting-edge digital technology.

The partnership between Loop Global and Reem Mall will see the installation of more than 60 state-of-the-art EV charging stations throughout 2025. The project’s first phase, slated for completion in the first quarter, will include the deployment of Loop’s EV-FLEX Electric Vehicle Level 2 charging stations. The second phase, expected to wrap up by the third quarter, will feature Loop’s Infinity Flash DCFC 300KW/h lightning-fast chargers, offering a rapid charging solution for EV owners.

This initiative aligns with the UAE’s ambitious goals to reduce transport sector energy consumption by 20% and increase EV adoption to 50% of all vehicles on the road by 2050. To achieve these targets, the UAE plans to install thousands of EV charging stations across retail outlets, residential complexes, government facilities, and petrol stations by 2030.

Loop Global, headquartered in California, operates one of the largest EV charging networks in the United States, with over 6,500 chargers. The company established its Abu Dhabi office in 2024 to showcase its innovative technology and leverage the UAE as a hub for sales and distribution across the region.

Zack Martin, President and Co-Founder of Loop Global, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating: “The opportunity at Reem Mall allows Loop Global to advance the Emirates’ clean energy goals, give consumers the easiest, most convenient charging access, and add to Reem Mall’s reputation as the region’s most exciting tech-enabled retail and leisure destination.”

Reem Mall CEO Nadia Akil added: “Shoppers and visitors coming to Reem Mall know they’re getting an experience that is enhanced by full connectivity, digital convenience, and options they won’t find anywhere else in the region. By adding Loop’s easy-to-use charging stations, we’re innovating again and adding to the hands-free shopping, in-mall navigation, and smart parking that we already offer.”

Loop Global’s technology is designed to deliver exceptional benefits for both EV drivers and charging station hosts. Through Loop’s mobile app, drivers can locate nearby chargers, initiate and monitor charging sessions, and process payments. The system also supports direct payment via credit card readers, where available. For station hosts, Loop’s platform eliminates monthly network fees and operational costs, allowing them to set billing rates and retain 90% of charging revenue. The company claims its chargers boast the industry’s lowest total cost of ownership and unparalleled uptime.
