CDL eyes setting up more EV charging points
It currently has installed chargers at its newer commercial properties.
City Developments (CDL) has expressed plans to expand electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure for its new residential and commercial developments, as well as to review its use for existing properties, according to its sustainability report.
In particular, it will look into expanding its installation to its residential developments, and explore its potential use at existing properties that the company manages. Currently, CDL has EV chargers as mandatory provisions at their new commercial properties.
CDL has installed EV chargers in car parks since the early 2010s, with City Square Mall as the first shopping mall in Singapore to offer communal EV parking lots and chargers in 2012.
In 2019, CDL partnered with SP Group to provide direct current fast chargers for EV. With this, Republic Plaza is the first commercial building in the central business district (CBD) to have a direct current fast-charging point.
