Potential Adoption of United Kingdom's EV Charging Model to Speed Up Deployment in Singapore

Written Reply to Parliamentary Question

Mr Ng Shi Xuan asked the Acting Minister for Transport whether Singapore will consider the United Kingdom model where users have to bring their own electric vehicle (EV) charging cables to speed up the deployment of EV chargers.

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow:

1.          For public safety reasons, chargers without fixed charging cables are currently allowed in limited locations, such as private landed residences, where access can be restricted. As technology improves, we will consider such options.
