Qoray and Federal Palace Hotel Forge Partnership to Expand Electric Vehicle Charging in Lagos
In a significant move to bolster Nigeria's electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure, Qoray, a clean technology company specializing in distributed clean energy and electric mobility solutions, has launched a new EV charging station at the iconic Federal Palace Hotel & Casino in Victoria Island, Lagos. This strategic partnership marks a pivotal step in enhancing sustainable urban transportation options within one of the city's most bustling commercial and hospitality districts.
Strategic Location and Advanced Charging Capabilities
The newly commissioned station is strategically positioned at the Federal Palace Hotel & Casino, a premier destination in the heart of Victoria Island. This location ensures high visibility and accessibility for EV owners navigating the busy corridors of Victoria Island and Ikoyi. The installation includes three 60kWh dual-gun DC fast chargers, capable of serving up to six vehicles simultaneously. These chargers can deliver a 20–80 percent charge in as little as 30–45 minutes, depending on the vehicle type, offering a rapid and efficient solution for both current EV users and prospective adopters.
Designed to cater to a diverse range of users, the facility is expected to support fleet operators and corporate mobility services, positioning it as a strategic charging hub for vehicles operating within the Victoria Island and Ikoyi business districts. By integrating the charging infrastructure into a premium hospitality environment, Qoray aims to reinforce the practicality of electric mobility, allowing guests and visitors to charge their vehicles while lodging, dining, or attending business engagements.
Vision and Commitment to Clean Mobility
At the launch event, Olabanjo Alimi, Founder and CEO of Qoray, emphasized the broader vision behind this expansion. "We are proud to bring Qoray's clean energy solutions to a landmark location like the Federal Palace Hotel & Casino," Alimi stated. "Our goal is to remove barriers to EV adoption by building reliable, accessible infrastructure in the places where people work, stay, and connect. This station represents more than convenience; it reflects our commitment to enabling individuals and businesses to embrace cleaner, smarter mobility."
This deployment aligns with growing calls for sustainable urban transportation solutions in Lagos and reflects Qoray's broader mission to accelerate clean mobility adoption through dependable, strategically deployed energy and charging infrastructure. The initiative signals a decisive shift toward cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable urban transportation as electric mobility gains momentum across Nigeria.
Federal Palace Hotel's Sustainability Initiatives
Anita Ibru, Executive Director of Federal Palace Hotel & Casino, reaffirmed the hotel's commitment to sustainability and innovation. "Our partnership with Qoray aligns with Federal Palace Hotel & Casino's commitment to environmental responsibility and enhanced guest experiences," Ibru explained. "By introducing EV charging infrastructure onto our premises, we are prioritizing convenience for our guests while contributing meaningfully to Lagos' clean mobility transition. We encourage both our guests and the wider Lagos community to take advantage of this new amenity."
With this latest deployment, Qoray continues to expand its growing charging network across Lagos, setting a precedent for property owners, corporate institutions, and government stakeholders to collaborate in accelerating the development of a nationwide EV charging ecosystem. This initiative not only enhances the city's infrastructure but also promotes a greener future for urban transportation in Nigeria.
