As reported by The News, EV charging services will be offered at select PSO fuel pumps nationwide as part of the contract.
The signing ceremony was held on February 14, the publication cited a notification issued by PSO to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Monday.
In this regard, a meeting held on the same day by the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) of the cabinet deliberated on the approval of the establishment of an international joint trading company in Singapore.
