EV charging in Clementi: where it is cheapest, and the blocks where overnight gets tight

The cheapest charge in Clementi is not in the town at all. It is a pair of slow bays in the car park at West Coast Pier, the ferry terminal at the far end of West Coast Park, at S$0.53 per kWh.

That undercuts every HDB block in Clementi and both of its malls.

The catch is the obvious one: it is a drive out to the sea for a cent or two off, on two alternating-current bays that are usually empty for good reason.

A cent cheaper still, at S$0.49, are the chargers at the Republic of Singapore Yacht Club next door, but those are for members.

For everyone else, the cheapest charge worth the trip is at the foot of the block.

Charge+ runs the chargers at dozens of Clementi and West Coast carparks at S$0.63 per kWh, below either mall.

But the malls are the expensive option.

Clementi Mall and West Coast Plaza, the two places a driver would think to look, run from S$0.77 to S$0.86.

Overnight is easy on most Clementi streets, with the squeeze confined to a cluster of older blocks on Clementi Avenues 1 to 6.

There is a different charger for the cheapest top-up, the overnight plug and the fast charge in a hurry.

The cheapest charge: the blocks, not the malls

Set the ferry pier aside, and the cheap power in Clementi is at the HDB blocks.

Charge+ wired most of the older estate, and it charges S$0.63 per kWh on slow 3.7kW and 7.4kW bays at carparks up and down Clementi Avenues 1 to 6, West Coast Drive and West Coast Road. It is the lowest block rate in the town and, the pier aside, the lowest rate of any kind.

The other big operator at the blocks is ComfortDelGro ENGIE, at S$0.70 per kWh. Which charger sits outside a given block is decided by whichever operator wired the carpark, not by price, so a resident's cheapest option is often fixed by their postcode.

But one industrial unit beats the blocks.

EV Mobility runs a single 22kW bay at the Westech Building on Pandan Loop at S$0.60 per kWh, of use mainly to a driver already in the estate.

On a 40kWh top-up, the gap between the cheapest and dearest is real but modest: about S$21 at West Coast Pier, S$25 at a Charge+ block and S$28 at a ComfortDelGro ENGIE one, against about S$34 at West Coast Plaza.

Charging overnight: where the squeeze is

For residents without a home charger, the block chargers are the overnight default, and across Clementi they are mostly a soft target.

About a quarter of the block chargers are in use overnight, roughly half that by day — the gentle version of the residential pattern, where some drivers come home and plug in but most sockets stay open.

On almost any West Coast street a resident can come home late and still find a plug. The squeeze is a cluster of older blocks in the centre of the estate, along Clementi Avenues 1 to 6.

The two that genuinely fill are small. Block 210 Clementi Avenue 6 and Block 463 Clementi Avenue 1, three ComfortDelGro ENGIE sockets each, are usually all taken overnight.

Both are full by about 8pm on a weeknight, so plug in by 7pm. Caught later at Block 210, a driver can walk to Block 206 Clementi Avenue 6, where Charge+ runs six bays at the lower S$0.63 rate and a socket is usually open.

At the weekend the two diverge. Block 210 fills even harder, down to no open socket from about 8pm, while Block 463 holds a socket or two until about 9pm.

The cheap Charge+ blocks fill more slowly, because there are more sockets to go round. Casa Clementi, at Block 416A Clementi Avenue 1, runs six bays at S$0.63 and is down to its last socket or two by about 9pm on a weeknight. At the weekend it keeps one or two open later, into the late evening.

The Clementi Avenue 4 blocks tighten last.

Block 309A and the Trivelis carpark at Block 311 are down to their final socket by about 9pm to 10pm on a weeknight.

Block 312, with 10 bays, holds three or four open on a weeknight, but tightens to its last two after midnight at the weekend.

When the central blocks are full, the answer is a short drive or walk towards West Coast, where the bigger carparks stay open.

Block 708 Clementi West Street 2 is the reliable one: Charge+ runs 16 bays there at S$0.63, and about a dozen sit open through the night, weekday or weekend. Block 501 West Coast Drive and Block 435 Clementi Avenue 3 are almost always wide open at the same rate.

None of this is worth guessing at from home. The revolt.sg charger map shows which block has an open socket right now.

When speed matters: fast charging out in Pandan

Clementi has little fast charging in the residential heart, and what there is sits out on the western industrial edge, in the Pandan Loop and Pandan Crescent estate.

The cheapest fast charge is a 120kW direct-current charger at 10 Pandan Crescent, in the UE Tech Park warehouse cluster, where KED Energy charges S$0.72 per kWh, usually with an open bay.

Charge+ runs a 120kW charger at the same rate band, S$0.73, at CT Foodchain on Pandan Loop, and an 80kW unit at S$0.73 at the Vista 18 carpark on Clementi West Street 2. ComfortDelGro ENGIE has 100kW chargers at S$0.76 at two block carparks, on Clementi Avenue 3 and Clementi West Street 2.

The dearest fast power is at the malls. West Coast Plaza runs a 100kW charger at S$0.86, and Clementi Mall a 50kW one at S$0.77, both from a single bay.

For a driver who would rather not wait, the Pandan chargers are the value pick: 120kW, the lowest fast rate, and a warehouse estate that empties out after office hours.

The malls and convenient charging

Clementi's two malls are the convenient charge, not the cheap one.

Clementi Mall, above the MRT and bus interchange on Commonwealth Avenue West, has ComfortDelGro ENGIE bays at S$0.70 per kWh and a Shell fast charger at S$0.77, plus a slower Shell bay at S$0.86.

West Coast Plaza on West Coast Road is dearer across the board, with SP Mobility chargers at S$0.77 on alternating current and S$0.86 on its 100kW fast unit.

The TIC Tech Centre on Pandan Crescent and the West Coast Park car park off West Coast Highway round out the convenient charging, at S$0.77 and S$0.70.

Beyond the S$0.63 blocks, none of these is the cheapest way to charge, and most make sense only for a driver already parked there for the shops or the park.

Paying for it

There is no single tap-and-go card across the networks, so the app matters.

Charge+ runs the cheapest blocks, at S$0.63, and the CT Foodchain fast charger, and takes payment through its own app. ComfortDelGro ENGIE covers the other large share of blocks and a couple of the fast chargers.

SP Mobility runs West Coast Plaza, Shell Recharge the Clementi Mall and TIC Tech chargers, and EV Mobility, KED Energy and G. Tech the industrial and pier units.

The practical move is to set up the app for whichever charger is the regular one before the first visit, because most of these units will not start without it.

The full list

Every public charger in Clementi with a published rate is below, cheapest first. The members-only bays at the Republic of Singapore Yacht Club are left out, and the per-block chargers are grouped by operator.

Prices and availability are as of 19 June 2026 and can change, so check the live map before driving.

The upshot

For a driver in Clementi, the everyday answer is the block: Charge+ runs more carparks than anyone at S$0.63 per kWh, cheaper than either mall. The single lowest rate, S$0.53, is out at West Coast Pier, worth it only if a drive to the sea suits.

The cheapest fast charge is the 120kW KED Energy unit at 10 Pandan Crescent, at S$0.72, out in the Pandan warehouses where a bay is almost always open.

Overnight charging is easy on most streets and tight on only a few. Block 210 Clementi Avenue 6 and Block 463 Clementi Avenue 1 are full by about 8pm any night, so the answer there is to get home early or walk a street over to a bigger, cheaper Charge+ block.
