Charge+ has become the first charging point operator in Singapore to surpass 4,000 EV charging points, a milestone reached in December 2025 and officially announced this week. The expansion has been backed by a S$21 million green loan from DBS Bank, as the homegrown operator accelerates its push across both heartland carparks and the wider Southeast Asian region.

The milestone puts Charge+ ahead of rival operators SP Group, Shell Recharge, and CDG ENGIE in the race to build out Singapore's EV charging network — infrastructure that the government considers critical as it works toward phasing out new conventional vehicle purchases by 2030.

More Than Half the Network Sits in HDB Estates

Of the 4,000-plus charging points, over 2,000 are located in HDB estates spanning four of Singapore's five zones. For the majority of Singaporean households — roughly 80 per cent live in HDB flats — this directly addresses the biggest practical barrier to EV ownership: the lack of a home charger.

Unlike landed homeowners who can install a wallbox in their own carpark, HDB residents have historically relied on a patchwork of public chargers that were often inconvenient or oversubscribed. The density of Charge+'s HDB rollout changes that calculation. With charging points increasingly available in the same carpark where residents park overnight, owning an EV becomes a more realistic proposition for heartlanders — not just private property owners.

Charge+ won its first LTA EV charging tender in September 2021, followed by a second in November 2022 to install roughly 4,000 points in HDB carparks across the Central and West zones. The company has since extended coverage to four zones islandwide.

Fast Charging in Commercial Hubs

Beyond HDB estates, approximately 1,700 charging points are installed across some 300 condominiums. The operator has also deployed fast chargers rated at 120 kW or higher in shopping malls, commercial buildings, and industrial sites — aimed at drivers who need a rapid top-up rather than a slow overnight charge.

A Regional Push From a Singapore Base

The 4,000-point milestone is only part of Charge+'s ambition. The company, founded in 2018 as part of the Sunseap Group, has set a target of 16,000 charging points in Singapore by 2030 — and 30,000 across Southeast Asia in the same timeframe.

That regional footprint already spans five countries: Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Cambodia. Roaming partnerships with TNB and ChargeSini in Malaysia, EGAT in Thailand, and PT PLN in Indonesia are laying the groundwork for a 5,000 km cross-border EV charging highway — a corridor that could eventually let Singapore-based EV drivers charge seamlessly on road trips through the peninsula and beyond.

The regional expansion was underpinned by a Series A round in October 2023 from TNB Aura and TRIVE, followed by the DBS green loan announced alongside this latest milestone.

A Quarter of the Way There

Singapore's national target stands at 60,000 EV charging points by 2030 — 40,000 in public carparks and 20,000 in private premises. As of March 2025, just over 15,300 points had been installed islandwide, roughly a quarter of the way there. Charge+'s 4,000-point network now represents a significant share of that total.

With five years left on the national clock and EV adoption accelerating, the infrastructure race among operators is only set to intensify. For Charge+, the challenge shifts from first-mover milestones to network reliability and coverage depth — ensuring that those 4,000 points work when drivers need them most.
