[SINGAPORE, 8 July 2025] – Charging of electric vehicles (EVs) will now be super swift with the launch of Singapore’s first liquid-cooled ultra-fast direct current charger – the fastest in the nation and can charge over 200 km in range in just five minutes.
It is the first collaboration between Huawei, a global information and communication technology leader and SP Mobility, part of Singapore Power (SP) Group. This first public deployment of the charger at Temasek Polytechnic was sealed in a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two companies to explore advanced EV charging solutions across Singapore.
The ultra-fast charger has a maximum power rating of 480kW, depending on available power on site. Leveraging Huawei’s liquid-cooled technology, the system’s advanced thermal management ensures consistently high performance, safety, and energy efficiency, with longer service life and minimum maintenance. The charger will have at least four charging points and will also be augmented by an integrated energy storage system to provide additional power.
The MoU outlines plans to co-develop and roll out high-powered charging systems at strategic locations and conduct regular technical sharing to accelerate the development & deployment of fast & ultra-fast charging infrastructure. The partnership will not just focus on supporting passenger vehicles, but also support commercial vehicles such as logistics fleets and private buses which typically have longer operational hours and higher daily mileage. Complementing these efforts, SP Mobility has also partnered with Goldbell Group to provide charging solutions for their logistics and heavy vehicle operations.
This MoU follows a partnership, announced in 2024, between Huawei and EV-Electric (EVe) Charging Pte Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Land Transport Authority to propel the roll-out of Singapore’s largest public EV network, with the SP Mobility project being the first launched under the partnership.
Mr Maxi Wang, Chief Executive Officer of Huawei International, said, “Huawei is delighted to partner with SP Mobility to support Singapore’s journey towards carbon neutrality. Huawei is committed to advancing clean energy and smart eMobility solutions, enhancing EV charging infrastructure and sustainability. 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.”
SP Mobility currently operates 20 charging points at Temasek Polytechnic, adding to the 120 already available across Tampines on its charging network, with more set to be installed over time. This latest installation boosts access to public fast charging in the east of Singapore.
Dean Cher, Managing Director, Mobility at SP Group, said, “As the nation’s largest public fast-charging network operator, SP Mobility is focused on enabling faster, reliable and more rewarding charging experiences, especially for fleet and commercial users. By partnering 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.”
In Q1 of 2025, EVs accounted for 40% of all new car sales in the first quarter of the year (Land Transport Authority). This trajectory highlights the need for faster and more accessible charging options to meet growing demand. High-speed chargers play a pivotal role in this transition, minimising wait times and accelerating the advancement of the e-mobility ecosystem.
