SP Mobility and Huawei are set to roll out Singapore’s fastest public electric vehicle (EV) charger at Temasek Polytechnic, with deployment expected by the fourth quarter of 2025.
With a maximum power rating of 480kW, the charger can deliver over 200km of range in just five minutes. It will feature at least four charging points and an integrated energy storage system to supplement grid power during peak demand. It also leverages Huawei’s liquid-cooling technology for advanced thermal management, ensuring high performance, safety, and energy efficiency with minimal maintenance.
The initiative is part of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between Huawei and SP Mobility, a subsidiary of SP Group, to co-develop and expand high-powered charging infrastructure across Singapore. They will also engage in regular technical collaboration to accelerate the rollout of fast and ultra-fast charging systems.
The rollout comes as EV adoption in Singapore gains momentum. In the first quarter of 2025, EVs accounted for 40% of all new car sales, according to the Land Transport Authority (LTA). The sharp uptick highlights the need for faster and more accessible charging options to meet growing demand.
Beyond serving passenger EVs, the partnership aims to support commercial vehicles such as logistics fleets and private buses, which typically operate for longer hours and cover more mileage. SP Mobility is also partnering with Goldbell Group to offer charging solutions for heavy vehicles and logistics operators.
“SP Mobility is focused on enabling faster, reliable and more rewarding charging experiences, especially for fleet and commercial users. By partnering with Huawei, we look forward to collaborating on other cutting-edge EV charging technology and scaling up ultra-fast charging deployments to support the electrification of heavy vehicle segments,” says Dean Cher, managing director for Mobility at SP Group.

Maxi Wang, chief executive officer of Huawei International, adds: “Huawei is delighted to partner with SP Mobility to support Singapore’s journey towards carbon neutrality. Designed to meet fleet operators' demands, Huawei's ultra-fast chargers are highly reliable, efficient, and easily scalable to accommodate future needs. We remain dedicated to providing cutting-edge technology and services, empowering our local partners to create commercial value, accelerate sustainable development, and contribute to a greener, cleaner Singapore in line with the nation’s 2040 EV vision.”
This deployment builds on a broader national initiative to expand EV charging infrastructure. In 2024, Huawei partnered with EV-Electric (EVe) Charging, a subsidiary of LTA, to help accelerate the rollout of the nation’s largest public EV charging network. The Temasek Polytechnic deployment is the first to be launched under that partnership.
