One-north and Buona Vista have more EV charging than the futuristic streetscape suggests — but the pricing spread is wild. AC rates start at $0.598/kWh and DC fast charging from $0.728/kWh, yet the same district also has chargers hitting $0.861/kWh. The difference comes down to which basement you pick.

Eclipse: The Cheapest AC in One-North

Eclipse at 1 Fusionopolis View is the standout value option for AC charging in the district. Operated by Volt Singapore on Basement 2:

• AC22 (22kW): $0.5980/kWh

At just under $0.60/kWh, this is the cheapest AC charging anywhere in one-north or Buona Vista. A 30kWh session costs $17.94 — roughly $5 cheaper than the SP Mobility alternatives nearby. The location is right in the Fusionopolis cluster, making it convenient for anyone working in the research or tech buildings in the area.

The catch? Eclipse only has AC chargers — no DC. For fast charging, you'll need to look elsewhere. But for overnight or all-day charging while at work, this is the default choice.

Buona Vista Court: Cheapest AC for Residents

Buona Vista Court at 18 Holland Drive offers the cheapest AC charging for residents of the Buona Vista estate. Operated by Charge+:

• AC7.4 (7.4kW): $0.6290/kWh
• AC3.7 (3.7kW): $0.6290/kWh

At $0.6290/kWh, this undercuts most HDB estate chargers elsewhere in Singapore. The 7.4kW speed is standard for HDB overnight charging — adequate for a full overnight top-up. For Buona Vista residents without private parking, this is a solid, affordable option.

A*STAR and Innovis: Consistent Mid-Tier AC

Two research buildings in the one-north core offer AC charging at identical rates.

A*STAR at 1 Fusionopolis Way — ComfortDelGro Engie on Basement 3:

• AC22 (22kW): $0.6950/kWh

Innovis at 2 Fusionopolis Way — ComfortDelGro Engie on Basement 3:

• AC22 (22kW): $0.6950/kWh

At $0.6950/kWh, these are mid-tier options — more expensive than Eclipse but cheaper than SP Mobility. Both buildings are primarily for research tenants, so access may be restricted to building users during office hours. For those who work in either building, the AC 22kW speed is functional for a workday top-up.

Park Avenue Rochester: The Cheapest DC Fast Charging

Park Avenue Rochester at 31 Rochester Drive is the hidden value gem of the district. Operated by Charge+ on Basement 1:

• DC120 (120kW): $0.7280/kWh

At $0.7280/kWh for DC 120kW, this is the cheapest DC fast charging in the entire one-north–Buona Vista area — and one of the better-value DC options in western Singapore. A 30kWh session costs $21.84. The 120kW speed is genuine fast charging: roughly 15–20 minutes for a meaningful top-up on most EVs.

The location is the Park Avenue Rochester hotel, and the carpark is accessible to non-guests. For anyone in the Rochester-Buona Vista corridor, this is the DC default.

Elementum: Balanced DC Near Buona Vista

Elementum at 1 North Buona Vista Link offers DC fast charging close to the Buona Vista MRT and office belt. Operated by Volt Singapore on Basement 2:

• DC60 (60kW): $0.74/kWh

At $0.74/kWh, the DC 60kW is marginally more expensive than Park Avenue Rochester but offers a different location for the same corridor. A 30kWh session costs $22.20. The 60kW speed is practical — expect 30–40 minutes for a solid top-up. For workers at The Metropolis or the Buona Vista office cluster, this is a convenient mid-speed option.

The SP Mobility Cluster: Premium Pricing Across the District

SP Mobility operates at five locations across one-north, Buona Vista, and Holland Village — all at premium rates that are hard to justify given the cheaper alternatives nearby.

Solaris@One-North at 1 Fusionopolis Walk — Basement 2:

• DC50 (50kW): $0.8066/kWh
• AC43 (43kW): $0.7194/kWh

Rochester Common at 1 Rochester Park — Basement 2:

• DC100 (100kW): $0.8066/kWh
• AC22 (22kW): $0.7194/kWh

At $0.8066/kWh for DC, both locations are 11% more expensive than Park Avenue Rochester — for slower or only marginally faster hardware. Solaris's DC 50kW at $0.8066 costs $24.20 for 30kWh versus $21.84 at Park Avenue Rochester's DC 120kW. The math doesn't work.

Galaxis at 1 Fusionopolis Place — Basement 2:

• DC50 (50kW): $0.8611/kWh
• AC43 (43kW): $0.7739/kWh

At $0.8611/kWh for DC, Galaxis is the most expensive DC option in the district. A 30kWh session costs $25.83 — nearly $4 more than Park Avenue Rochester for a quarter of the speed. Only use if all other DC options are occupied.

One Holland Village at 7 Holland Village Way:

• DC100 (100kW): $0.8611/kWh
• AC22 (22kW): $0.7739/kWh

The Star Vista at 1 Vista Exchange Green — Basement 3:

• DC100 (100kW): $0.8611/kWh
• AC22 (22kW): $0.7739/kWh

Both at $0.8611/kWh for DC and $0.7739/kWh for AC — identical premium pricing. Treat both locations as emergency backup only.

The Metropolis: Shell's Premium AC Option

The Metropolis at 9 North Buona Vista Drive offers AC charging near the Buona Vista MRT. Operated by Shell Recharge on Basement 1:

• AC22 (22kW): $0.77/kWh

No DC chargers are available here. At $0.77 for AC-only, this is poor value compared to Eclipse's AC 22kW at $0.5980 or even A*STAR's AC 22kW at $0.6950. Only use if you're already at The Metropolis and have no alternative.

Practical Tips

For cheapest AC charging:

• Eclipse (AC 22kW at $0.5980/kWh) is the clear value leader for one-north workers
• Buona Vista Court (AC 7.4kW at $0.6290/kWh) is the cheapest option for residents
• A*STAR / Innovis (AC 22kW at $0.6950/kWh) are solid mid-tier options if you have building access

For cheapest DC fast charging:

• Park Avenue Rochester (DC 120kW at $0.7280/kWh) is the cheapest and fastest DC in the district
• Elementum (DC 60kW at $0.74/kWh) is the convenient Buona Vista alternative
• Solaris@One-North (DC 50kW at $0.8066/kWh) is expensive but available in the one-north core

What to avoid:

• Galaxis DC at $0.8611/kWh — the most expensive DC option, with only 50kW speed
• One Holland Village and Star Vista SP chargers — $0.8611/kWh DC and $0.7739/kWh AC with premium pricing
• The Metropolis AC at $0.77/kWh — AC-only and overpriced compared to Eclipse

Access notes:

• Eclipse, A*STAR, and Innovis are office/research buildings — access may be restricted outside office hours
• Buona Vista Court is an HDB estate — residents and visitors have access
• Park Avenue Rochester is a hotel carpark — generally accessible to non-guests

The Verdict

One-north and Buona Vista have a clear value hierarchy if you know where to look. At $0.5980/kWh, Eclipse's AC 22kW is the cheapest charging option in the district. At $0.7280/kWh, Park Avenue Rochester's DC 120kW is the cheapest fast charging — and one of the best-value DC options in western Singapore.

The smart play: For AC charging, default to Eclipse if you work in the one-north core. Use Buona Vista Court if you're a resident. For DC fast charging, Park Avenue Rochester is the clear value leader — 120kW speed at $0.7280/kWh undercuts every other DC option in the district. Use Elementum as the Buona Vista backup at $0.74/kWh.

Treat the $0.8611/kWh SP Mobility cluster — Galaxis, One Holland Village, The Star Vista — as emergency backup only. The gap between cheapest DC (Park Avenue Rochester at $0.7280) and most expensive (Galaxis/One Holland Village/Star Vista at $0.8611) is $0.133/kWh. On a 40kWh charge, that's the difference between $29.12 and $34.44. The value is hiding in the Charge+ and Volt Singapore locations, not the better-known SP Mobility sites.
