Oil Ministry launches electric vehicle infrastructure development

Iran’s Oil Ministry initiated plans for the development of electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure in line with a recent resolution by the government’s Economic Council.  
The CEO of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company (NIORDC) has mandated — in line with diversifying the fuel portfolio and managing consumption — that the establishment of new fuel stations nationwide must be contingent on the construction of “at least one single-nozzle EV charging station,” citing a recent resolution by the Economic Council.
Mohammad Sadeq Azimifar directed the NIORDC to mandate that all new fuel stations in the country include “at least one single-nozzle electric charging station” as a prerequisite for construction.  
Accordingly, new fuel stations are required to establish electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and the development of electric infrastructure at operating stations across the country will also take place after feasibility studies in collaboration with the station owners.
In addition to expanding charging infrastructure, the NIORDC is leveraging fuel-saving bonds to implement programs for modernizing and replacing aging vehicle fleets with electric alternatives. These initiatives are set to be unveiled soon.  
Iran has been importing limited amounts of gasoline to respond to a rising demand for fuel, a problem which has been exacerbated in recent years because of heavily subsidized prices that have encouraged smuggling across the borders.
According to NIOPDC announcing in mid-January, gasoline production in Iran had increased by nearly 10% in the three months before that, adding that total gasoline output from the country’s refineries had reached 107 million liters per day.
