[Updated, October 2026]
Key Takeaways: Across Singapore's five main public networks, AC charging costs around S$0.65–S$0.70 per kWh and DC fast charging S$0.70 to S$0.89 per kWh, based on September 2026 rates. SP Mobility has the largest network and Charge+ the lowest HDB rates. Charging at home costs less than half the public rate, and less again if rooftop solar covers your daytime charging.
More chargers don't mean cheaper charging. Singapore had around 30,500 electric vehicle (EV) charging points across public and private sites as of March 2026, according to the Ministry of Transport. That is more than five times the figure at the end of 2023, yet public rates still run from about S$0.65 per kWh on AC to alomost S$0.90 on DC fast chargers.
With the government aiming for all vehicles to run on cleaner energy by 2040, and a national target of 60,000 charging points by 2030, demand for electric vehicle charging stations in Singapore keeps climbing. The operators are changing too. TotalEnergies exited at the end of 2025, SP Mobility completed its acquisition of ChargEco in July 2026, and CGD ENGIE became CDG Energy in August 2026.
This guide compares the six main EV charging providers in Singapore: what they charge, where to find them, and how public charging compares with charging your EV at home.

Which Are the Best EV Charging Stations in Singapore in 2026?
The best EV charging stations in Singapore depend on where you park and how fast you need to charge. SP Mobility has the widest coverage, Charge+ the lowest everyday HDB rates, and Tesla suits Tesla owners.
We picked these six providers on 3 criteria: size of public network, published per-kWh pricing, and access to DC fast charging. Prices change often, so confirm the rate in each operator's app before you visit.
A quick guide to the terms: prices are per kilowatt-hour (kWh), the unit of electricity your battery stores. AC chargers are slower and cheaper, and suit overnight top-ups at HDB car parks. DC fast chargers add range quickly but cost more per kWh.

Charge+ and Volt sit at the cheaper end for everyday charging, while SP Mobility and Shell charge more for speed and coverage.
1. SP Mobility charging stations

SP Mobility operates Singapore's largest public EV charging network, with 4,600+ charging points across 1,100+ locations. Its lead grew in July 2026, when SP Group completed its acquisition of ChargEco in July 2026, adding more than 1,000 public charging points.
Its chargers sit in offices, warehouses, shopping malls and HDB car parks. Notable locations include Zhongshan Mall, i12 Katong, Galaxis and Techplace I, plus a fast-charging hub in a Tengah HDB car park.
The trade-off is price: SP's DC rate is the highest among the major networks.

It runs one of Singapore's largest HDB charging networks, with around 2,100 points across 560+ locations, including West Coast Park and school campuses. It won the first public tender to install EV chargers in HDB car parks.
Disclosure: GetSolar is backed by ENGIE, then called CDG ENGIE, until ComfortDelGro bought out its stake in August 2026.

Number of EV charging stations: Around 2,100 points, 560+ locations
Prices:
- AC charging: around S$0.70/kWh
- DC charging: around S$0.76/kWh
4. Shell Recharge Charging Stations

Shell Recharge has chargers at Shell petrol stations as well as HDB car parks and other public locations. Its station chargers include high-powered DC units designed for faster top-ups.
Pricing differs by site. HDB car park rates are not the same as Shell-station rates, so check the app first.
Website: https://www.shell.com.sg/motorists/shell-recharge-for-ev.html
Number of EV charging stations: Petrol stations, HDB car parks and other public locations
Prices:
- AC charging: around S$0.69/kWh
- DC charging: around S$0.86/kWh
- Idle fee: S$0.50/minute at applicable locations
5. Volt charging stations

Volt charging stations, run by Keppel's EV charging arm, offer some of the cheapest DC fast charging among the major networks, at around S$0.70/kWh. It runs around 335 points across 77 locations, mostly in malls, hotels and commercial buildings. Volt started as a joint venture between Keppel and Wanbang Digital Energy, one of China's leading EV charging operators.

Tesla's Supercharger network is built for Tesla owners, and selected sites also accept compatible non-Tesla EVs. You'll find Superchargers at
Century Square, One Holland Village, Causeway Point and City Square Mall.
Pricing is set per site and shown in the Tesla app, so check the rate before you plug in. Idle fees of S$0.50/minute can apply at busy sites, so move your car once charging finishes.

Number of EV charging stations: 12 locations, 37 stalls island-wide
Prices: Set per site (see the Tesla app)
Driving a BYD?
BYD doesn't run its own charging network. Instead, it has partnerships with Charge+, CDG Energy, Shell Recharge, SP Mobility and Volt, so you can charge across the island on the same networks listed above. Any EV can use these public networks, but BYD owners may quality for partner discounts. Check with BYD Singapore for current offers.
How Do You Find EV Charging Stations Near You?
Locate your nearest EV charging station with PlugShare
While PlugShare is not a charging provider, it can be your go-to hub for all things EV in Singapore. It covers parking fees, charging rates and charger types, and notifies you about new charging spots nearby.
Check the operator apps
Each network runs its own app with live availability and pricing, including SP Mobility, Charge+, CDG Energy, Shell Recharge and Volt. Most drivers keep 2 or 3: one for the network at their home car park, and one for fast top-ups.
More fast chargers are coming. By end-2027, every HDB town will have at least one fast-charging hub, according to the Ministry of Transport.
Is Public EV Charging Cheaper Than Charging at Home?
No. Charging at home on a residential electricity plan costs around half of what you pay at a public DC fast charger.
Sources: The Money Bees, Motorist.sg. Home rates vary by retailer plan; costs exclude charging losses.
If you top up 60 kWh a week at public DC chargers, you spend roughly S$1,200–S$1,900 more a year than someone charging at home. That gap is a big reason to consider a home charger if you have a landed property. Our guide to EV charger installers in Singapore shows how to get started.
Solar can widen the savings. If your panels produce while the car is parked at home, you charge on electricity you generate yourself instead of buying it from the grid. If your car charge overnight, solar helps less directly, and results vary by roof, usage and system size. Our guide to solar EV charging explains how to time it.
Frequently Asked Questions about EV Charging Stations in Singapore
Is EV charging free in Singapore?
Most public EV charging stations operate on a paid basis. You pay per kWh in the operator's app, or subscribe to a plan if you charge often on one network.
Free charging still appears as short-term promotions at some malls and offices, but these change often. Check the operator app before you count on it.
Which EV charging network is cheapest in Singapore?
Among the major networks, Charge+ has the lowest HDB AC rate at around S$0.65/kWh, and Volt has some of the cheapest DC charging at around S$0.70/kWh. A few mall car parks, such as IKEA Alexandra, charge as little as S$0.45/kWh.
What happened to TotalEnergies charging stations (Bluecharge)?
TotalEnergies charging stations no longer operate under the TotalEnergies name. The company ended its EV charging operations in Singapore by 31 December 2025 and handed its 1,465 charging points to other operators, according to electrive. SP Mobility took over 250 of these points in HDB car parks, and the chargers remain part of the public network.
If you used to charge at a TotalEnergies point, check the SP Mobility app first, or the app of the operator now running your HDB car park.
What are idle fees?
Idle fees charge you for staying plugged in after your car finishes charging. SP Mobility, Shell Recharge and Tesla charge S$0.50/minute at applicable sites.
Can I charge my EV at home?
Yes. Charging your EV at home is the most convenient and economical way to keep your car ready to go. You need a compatible charger installed by a Licensed Electrical Worker (LEW), and landed homes have the most flexibility here.

Beyond EV Charging: Power Your Car From Your Own Roof
Singapore's public network has grown to around 30,500 charging points, and the choice of provider now comes down to where you park and how much you're willing to pay for speed. For landed homeowners, the cheapest charger is still the one in your own porch.
Pair it with solar panels for your home and your daytime charging runs on electricity you generate yourself, while the rest of your electricity bill shrinks too.
