ADNOC and Terra Tech launch Abu Dhabi’s first battery-swapping station for E-bikes

Dubai: ADNOC Distribution, in partnership with Terra Tech Ltd., has launched Abu Dhabi’s first battery-swapping station for electric motorbikes, marking a major milestone in the emirate’s clean mobility initiative.

The new facility, located at one of ADNOC’s flagship service stations, allows riders to exchange depleted batteries for fully charged ones within seconds, significantly reducing downtime and emissions for the growing fleet of electric delivery bikes operating across the capital.

Boost for last-mile delivery

The initiative aims to accelerate the transition towards electric transport within Abu Dhabi’s rapidly expanding last-mile delivery sector. By offering instant access to charged batteries, the system eliminates lengthy charging stops and enhances operational efficiency for delivery operators.

“Expanding into Abu Dhabi is a pivotal step in Terra Tech’s journey to build future-ready electric mobility infrastructure across the UAE,” said Husam Zammar, Founder of Terra Tech Ltd. “ADNOC Distribution’s extensive service station network gives us the reach to bring clean mobility solutions directly to riders and communities,” he added, as reported by Gulf Times.

Driving clean transport innovation

As a strategic partner, ADNOC Distribution is leveraging its nationwide network as a platform for integrating sustainable technologies. The initiative demonstrates how existing energy infrastructure can be adapted to support low-emission mobility and greater business efficiency.

“By hosting battery-swapping technology at ADNOC service stations, we are creating a bridge between traditional and electric transport models,” said a company representative. “This aligns with the UAE’s vision for a cleaner, more connected mobility ecosystem.”

Abu Dhabi’s e-mobility ambitions

The launch supports Abu Dhabi Mobility’s target for 50% of vehicles to be electric by 2040 and contributes to the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 strategy. ADNOC Distribution and Terra Tech plan to expand the battery-swapping network across the emirate, providing a faster, smarter, and more sustainable alternative for delivery fleets and urban transport providers.

The rollout underlines Terra Tech’s commitment to scaling electric mobility nationwide — driving the UAE’s progress towards a cleaner transport future, one battery swap at a time.
