As of 16 October 2026, electric vehicle (EV) charging at Suntec City costs S$0.78 per kWh on Shell Recharge's 22kW AC plugs and its 50kW DC plug, and S$0.87 per kWh on its 43kW AC plug and 190kW DC plugs.

For a fast charge, the DC plugs are the better choice, with ten plugs at 190kW.

Chargers at Suntec City

Shell Recharge runs 17 AC plugs, 16 at 22kW and one at 43kW, and 11 DC plugs, ten at 190kW and one at 50kW.

The plugs are in the Green, Orange and Red zones on Basement 1 and Basement 2.

Shell Recharge10 DC, 190kW, Combo 2 (CCS2)S$0.87Yes, a public mall car park

The 50kW DC plug: it costs the same as the 22kW AC plugs, so it is the cheapest quick charge here.

The 43kW AC plug: it costs S$0.09 more per kWh than the 22kW ones. But a car that takes 11 or 22kW on AC charges no faster on it.

Charging speed: the 190kW figure is the charger's maximum. A car charges only as fast as it can take.

How the rates compare

Lowest listed rate in Singapore: S$0.34 per kWh, at the Schneider Electric Building on Kallang Avenue. Those chargers are for the staff who work there, not the public, and the revolt.sg charger map marks them "Restricted access".

Cheapest open to the public: S$0.43 per kWh, on a 7.4kW AC point run by Eneready at the Singapore Polytechnic Graduates' Guild on Dover Road (postal code 139658).

Lowest listed DC rate: S$0.39 per kWh, on a 30kW unit at Millage on Changi Road. The revolt.sg charger map marks it "Possibly restricted", because visitor access is not confirmed.

Cheapest fast DC open to the public: S$0.50 per kWh, on a 180kW ultra-fast unit at the Singapore Polytechnic Graduates' Guild on Dover Road. Fast DC means 50kW or more.

The median public rate: S$0.70 per kWh for AC, S$0.81 for fast DC (50kW to 150kW) and S$0.79 for ultra-fast DC (above 150kW). Shell's S$0.78 for 22kW AC here is above the AC median, its S$0.78 for the 50kW DC plug is below the fast DC median, and its S$0.87 for 190kW DC is above the ultra-fast DC median.

Cheapest in each area: the Singapore EV Charging Price Index lists the cheapest public chargers in each part of the island.

When it is busy

Shell Recharge's plugs are freely available at all hours, on weekdays and at weekends.

Even at its busiest, at least two of its 11 DC plugs were available.

At weekday lunchtime, there were rare moments when no AC plug was available.

What the ratings mean:

  • Freely available: almost always a plug available.
  • Moderate: now and then, no plug was available.
  • Tight: at times, no plug was available.
  • Very tight: often, no plug was available.

So for an AC charge at weekday lunchtime, drivers should check the revolt.sg charger map for an available plug before they go.

Paying and idle fees

Suntec City is not a Shell station, an HDB car park or a condominium, so under Shell's rules the 30-minute grace period applies here.

Drivers should check "Price Details" in the Shell Recharge Asia app before they start a charge, to see whether idle fees apply.

Every operator's rules are in the revolt.sg public charging guide.

Parking

Suntec City charges cars the rates below, and does not say whether they include GST. The revolt.sg charger map shows Suntec City's parking charges too.

  • Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm: S$2.60 for the first hour, then S$1.30 for every 30 minutes or part of it.
  • Monday to Friday, 5pm to 4am: S$3.00 per entry.
  • Saturday, Sunday and public holidays, 7am to 4am: S$2.60 for the first hour, S$1.30 for the next three hours, then S$1.30 for every 30 minutes or part of it.
  • Every day, 4am to 7am: S$2.60 for the first hour, then S$1.30 for every 30 minutes or part of it.

The Basement 2 entrances A, D and G are for season parking only from 7am to 4.59pm. Hourly parking at those three entrances starts at 5pm.

What a typical charge costs here

Take a 30kWh top-up on a Shell Recharge 22kW AC plug, in a car that arrives at 10am on a weekday and takes up to 11kW on AC. Drivers should check what their own car takes.

  • Time: about 2 hours 44 minutes at 11kW.
  • Charge: S$23.40, at S$0.78 per kWh.
  • Parking: S$7.80, as each part of 30 minutes counts as a full block. The revolt.sg charger map also shows Suntec City's parking charges.
  • Total: S$31.20, or S$1.04 per kWh.
  • After 5pm on a weekday, or at a weekend: parking drops to S$3.00 per entry or S$3.90, so the total is S$26.40 or S$27.30, which is S$0.88 or S$0.91 per kWh.
