ADNOC and Terra Launch Electric Motorbike Battery-Swapping Station in Abu Dhabi
A new milestone in the UAE’s clean transport journey has been reached with the inauguration of an electric motorbike battery-swapping station in Abu Dhabi. The facility introduces a faster, cleaner, and more efficient way to power electric motorbikes across the city.
Located within a major service station, the new site enables quick battery exchanges, replacing depleted batteries with fully charged ones in seconds. This system reduces waiting time, cuts emissions, and supports the shift away from traditional fuel-powered mobility. With service stations acting as strategic enablers, the technology gains visibility and scalability across the emirate.
This expansion highlights how the nation’s energy infrastructure is evolving to meet sustainability goals. It also demonstrates how public and private sector partnerships can work together to accelerate clean energy progress and promote next-generation mobility solutions.
Building a Network for Sustainable Mobility
The launch marks a significant step forward in building an electric mobility ecosystem across the UAE. By combining advanced battery-swapping systems with a reliable service station network, the project enables seamless adoption of electric motorbikes for commercial and fleet operations.
“Expanding into Abu Dhabi is a pivotal step in Terra Tech Ltd.’s journey to build future-ready electric mobility infrastructure across the UAE. ADNOC Distribution’s extensive service station footprint provides us with a powerful platform to reach users where they are and accelerate the adoption of clean mobility in the capital,” said Husam Zammar, Founder of Terra Tech Ltd.
Immediate battery exchanges ensure uninterrupted operations without charging delays. Moreover, by using existing infrastructure, the initiative keeps costs low while maximizing reach. It illustrates how innovation and accessibility can work together to advance sustainable mobility across urban environments.
Advancing the UAE’s Clean Energy Vision
The project supports Abu Dhabi Mobility’s target for 50 percent of all vehicles to be electric by 2040. It also aligns with the UAE’s national goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. By offering an efficient and scalable energy alternative, the initiative helps make electric transport both practical and sustainable.
Beyond its operational advantages, the project reflects a growing commitment to innovation in clean technology. As more battery-swapping stations launch nationwide, they are expected to create a robust ecosystem for electric vehicles, reducing emissions and improving overall energy efficiency.
Ultimately, this collaboration represents a forward-looking approach to mobility, one that drives environmental progress, encourages innovation, and supports the UAE’s wider transition toward a sustainable energy future.
