The Housing and Development Board (HDB) car parks in at least eight towns will be fitted with EV chargers by 2025 as a part of efforts to expand electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in Singapore.
The eight HDBs are located in Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Choa Chu Kang, Jurong West, Punggol, Queenstown, Sembawang and the upcoming Tengah town. These are part of a town-centric approach being taken for the installation of charging points. The towns are spread across Singapore and were selected on the basis of high concentration of car parks with existing electrical capacity to support charging point deployment.
These initiatives are in line with the aim of deploying 60,000 EV charging points across Singapore by 2030, of which 40,000 will be in public car parks while another 20,000 will be in private premises. All HDB’s in the country are planned to be equipped with EV charging by 2030.
