EV Charging in Singapore: What Drivers Need to Know
Singapore has limited public EV charging infrastructure. Our database shows 4 public charging points across the island. Most are concentrated in Singapore (3 points) and Central Singapore Community Development Council (1 point). This guide covers what to expect.
Charging Availability
As of our last update, Singapore offers 4 public charging points. Of these, one offers 50-149 kW charging speeds, and none currently provide 150 kW or faster charging. Coverage is sparse and focused on specific urban areas.
Operators and Pricing
You will likely encounter a few different operators. Home charging will offer the lowest cost per kWh, though electricity rates can vary by provider. Public DC fast charging costs are generally higher. Expect to pay more per kWh than you would at home. Most networks require app registration and payment via the app.
Connectors
Singapore uses the Type 2 connector for AC charging and CCS 2 for DC fast charging. This is standard for most EVs sold in the region.
Incentives
Singapore has promoted EV adoption through various incentives, including tax exemptions and rebates. Details can change, so check with local authorities for current schemes. These are generally applied at the point of vehicle purchase or registration, not directly to charging costs.
Tip for Visitors
If you are driving an EV into Singapore, plan your charging stops carefully. Given the limited number of public points, ensure your car is sufficiently charged before entering the city. Familiarize yourself with at least one local charging app before arrival.
