The announcement marks SP’s first fleet partnership since it unveiled plans in June to build Singapore’s largest and fastest public EV charging network. SP has committed to build 500 publicly accessible charging points, comprising both DC and AC chargers by 2020.

Grab and SP will study EV usage patterns and behaviours to improve the accessibility and utilisation of EV charging stations. SP plans to install its charging points in convenient locations, many within close-proximity to coffee-shops and food outlets.

“We have heard from our driver-partners a faster charge time and longer EV driving range are important considerations for them when making the switch to EVs,” said Grab head, Singapore, Lim Kell.
