Singapore unveiled its first electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging hub within an HDB carpark at 123 and 129 Plantation Crescent, Tengah on May 16, 2026 [1, 2]. The hub features 14 charging points, including eight direct-current fast chargers with up to 100 kW power output and six alternating-current chargers at 7.4 kW [1, 2]. Because existing HDB carparks offer fewer than six fast chargers each, this facility is considered the nation's first true EV fast-charging hub in public housing areas [1, 2].
The EV network rollout is led by SP Group and EV-Electric Charging, a subsidiary of the Land Transport Authority [1, 2]. Senior Minister of State for Transport Sun Xueling said Singapore aims to establish EV fast-charging hubs in every HDB town by the end of 2027 [1]. She stated, "Singapore plans to have EV fast-charging hubs in every HDB town by the end of 2027" [1].
As of October 2025, more than 7,500 charging points were installed across about 85% of HDB carparks. Most of these are regular AC chargers with a 7.4 kW power output, requiring roughly seven hours for a full EV charge [1, 2]. The new fast chargers at Tengah deliver up to 100 kW, significantly reducing charging durations [1, 2].
In February 2026, SP Mobility introduced a 400 kW EV charger at Temasek Polytechnic, one of the country's fastest, which can add 300 kilometers of range in 10 minutes [1, 2]. In March and April 2026, EV-Electric Charging secured contracts with companies including SP Mobility, Shell Singapore, and ComfortDelGro Engie to expand the fast charging network [1, 2].
Stephanie Tan, CEO of EV-Electric Charging, said the Tengah hub "expands the network by giving drivers greater convenience, flexibility and faster charging" [1].
The launch marks a key step toward broader EV infrastructure integration in public housing districts. The government’s target to have fast-charging hubs in all HDB towns by 2027 sets a clear timeline for continued expansion [1, 2].
