On May 28, 2026, Prime Minister N.Uchral accelerated the implementation of the “Green” resolution aimed at reducing fuel and energy dependence, listened to proposals from the private sector and business entities, and resolved several related issues.

The Ulaanbaatar Chamber of Commerce presented a program for developing electric vehicle infrastructure.

According to estimates, about 500 green charging stations will be built in Ulaanbaatar and local areas within the next two years. Before the COP-17 conference, 40 charging stations are planned to be built. By 2030, demand for electric vehicles in Mongolia is expected to reach 50,000. Over the next five years, the use of 300 million liters of fuel is expected to be reduced, saving about USD 200 million.

Under the program, electric vehicle charging stations are planned to be installed at 80 locations in Ulaanbaatar and 30 locations in local areas this year.

Officials said that 95% of electric vehicle owners currently charge their vehicles at home. If 500 charging stations are built with private sector investment, a smart payment system will be introduced to make nighttime charging cheaper. It is estimated that electric vehicle owners could save about MNT 7 million a year.

Prime Minister N.Uchral emphasized that the private sector should be supported and that preparations should be made in the summer for winter needs. He instructed the Ministry of Finance to make financing decisions with a one-percent tax discount, to sign contracts and begin construction work by June 5, and for the capital city and the Ministry of Roads and Transport to identify the 80 locations as soon as possible.

He also said a “Green Station” should be established along the Zamiin-Uud–Ulaanbaatar route, including facilities such as electric vehicle chargers, coffee shops, restaurants, and restrooms. He added that if the private sector implements the project, it will be supported through tax policy and that the government is ready to provide land.

Capital city Governor and Mayor of Ulaanbaatar B.Purevdagva said Ulaanbaatar has 804,000 registered vehicles, of which 0.2% are electric vehicles. He said the number of electric vehicles needs to increase and that the city is ready to work with the private sector, adding that 80 locations can be identified quickly in cooperation with the Ministry of Roads and Transport.

More than 100 business entities have also expressed interest in building battery storage systems and solar power plants at five locations under the Green Resolution on Reducing Fuel and Energy Dependence, which was approved by the government on April 29, 2026.
