Deployment of EV Charging Infrastructure in New Towns

Sectors

Electric vehicles

6 May 2026

Oral Reply by Senior Minister of State for Transport Sun Xueling

Dr Choo Pei Ling asked the Acting Minister for Transport

a.      whether inter-agency coordination is in place to support the timely deployment of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in new housing estates as towns are progressively occupied; and

b.      whether the Government will consider provisioning key supporting infrastructure earlier upfront to enable faster deployment in newer towns such as Tengah as resident demand builds up.

Reply by Senior Minister of State for Transport Ms Sun Xueling: 

1.     The Government targets to deploy 60,000 EV charging points by 2030, which comprise 40,000 in public car parks and 20,000 in private premises. As of March 2026, there are 30,500 EV charging points deployed in Singapore. We are on track to achieving our 2030 target in tandem with the growing demand for EVs.

2.   LTA monitors EV adoption rates closely, and coordinates with agencies such as EMA, HDB and JTC to deploy EV chargers and key supporting infrastructure. For carparks with high demand, LTA will work with EV charger operators to deploy more chargers, electrical capacity permitting. By end 2027, there will also be at least one fast charging hub in every HDB town.
