Mauritius has taken a significant step forward in its transition towards sustainable mobility with the launch of Himel’s Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Solutions, officially introduced on the local market this week.
A global leader in sustainable electrical and energy solutions, Himel is positioning itself as a key player in the development of electric mobility infrastructure in Mauritius. The newly launched EV chargers aim to make electric vehicle usage more accessible, safer, and more reliable, while supporting the country’s broader environmental and energy objectives.
The initiative aligns with the Government of Mauritius’s vision of a greener economy and reinforces the island’s long-standing commitment to clean energy, innovation, and technological advancement. As the number of electric vehicles on Mauritian roads continues to grow, the availability of dependable charging infrastructure is increasingly seen as a critical pillar of the transition.
Speaking on the occasion, Koon San Ang, Senior Vice President – Himel International, underlined the company’s long-term vision. He stated that Himel remains committed to delivering holistic electrical solutions that place safety, efficiency, and sustainability at the centre of development.
Designed to meet both present needs and future challenges, Himel’s EV charging solutions respond to the rising demand for eco-friendly and resilient power infrastructure across the island.
For Sherwin Phekun, Regional Sales Manager – Himel Anglophone Africa, the launch represents more than a technological milestone. He explained that the company’s mission is to build robust infrastructure that enables every Mauritian to take part in the green transition, stressing that the project is rooted in partnership, shared vision, and sustainable progress.
A key element of this rollout is Himel’s collaboration with Rey & Lenferna Ltd, a well-established Mauritian company with 85 years of local expertise, led by CEO Paul Ah Leung. The partnership combines global innovation with strong local knowledge, ensuring solutions that are adapted to the Mauritian context.
According to Phekun, the contribution of Rey & Lenferna’s teams has been instrumental in translating ambition into concrete results on the ground, paving the way for the next phase of electric mobility in Mauritius.
