Provision of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Car Parks of Public and Private Residential Properties

Mr Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim asked the Minister for Transport whether there are plans to mandate the provision of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the car parks of public and private residential properties.

We have about 1,800 Electric Vehicle (EV) charging points today, and we plan to increase this to 28,000 by 2030.

Given rapidly advancing battery technology, and imminent cost parity between EVs and internal combustion engine vehicles, LTA is reviewing our EV charging infrastructure plans to better support EV growth in Singapore.

This will include exploring the expansion of the charging network in public car parks, and provision of charging facilities in private car parks. In this context, we are studying a range of options, including whether we should mandate the installation of charging points in public and private residential carparks.
