As the world shifts toward more sustainable practices, businesses in the Philippines are increasingly looking at electric vehicles (EVs) as a viable option for their fleets. While the environmental and financial benefits of EVs are clear, many businesses remain concerned about the practicality of making the switch. One of the most common concerns is the availability of charging stations.                                

 

In this article, we will provide businesses with essential information on EV charging infrastructure in the Philippines, promoting a smooth and informed transition to electric vehicles.     

 

The Growing Shift to Electric Vehicles in the Philippines            

Many companies are exploring electric vehicles as part of a global push for sustainability. As businesses face rising fuel costs and pressure to reduce their environmental impact, EV adoption is becoming more appealing. 

 

Government policies like the Electric Vehicle Industry Development Act (EVIDA), also known as RA 11697, also play a crucial role by promoting the use of EVs and expanding the charging network across the country. As more people embrace eco-friendly transportation, companies are following suit, enhancing their corporate image and aligning with sustainability trends.        

 

Benefits of Going Electric for Companies        

  • Cost Savings: EVs offer substantial savings on fuel and maintenance costs. Charging an EV is generally cheaper than filling up a gasoline or diesel vehicle, and with fewer moving parts, EVs require less maintenance, reducing long-term operational expenses.
  • Environmental Benefits: Switching to EVs helps lower carbon emissions, contributing to a greener and more sustainable future. Making the switch will also boost your company’s sustainability profile, attracting eco-conscious customers and partners.
  • Future-Proofing: Adopting EVs now positions your business ahead of potential regulatory changes. As governments tighten emission standards, companies that have already transitioned to EVs will avoid the rush to comply with future restrictions on internal combustion engine vehicles.

Practical Advice on Finding and Planning Around Charging Locations

Finding Charging Stations

Look for great tools to help you locate charging stations in your area, such as websites, online groups, and communities. When planning long-distance trips, make sure to check the route in advance to ensure sufficient charging stations along the way. 

Costs of Charging

Charging costs vary from station to station, so it is essential for the government to provide incentives that can help reduce these expenses for businesses. For frequent users, negotiating bulk or corporate rates might further lower costs.

Government Incentives

Businesses investing in EVs or charging infrastructure may qualify for various government incentives, such as the Comprehensive Automotive Resurgence Strategy (CARS) Program, which includes tax exemption from the excise tax that makes the transition even more affordable.

 

Taking The Charge Towards an Electric Vehicle-Friendly Philippines

Transitioning to electric vehicles is a strategic move for businesses looking to save on costs, improve sustainability, and stay ahead of future regulations. If your business is ready to make the switch, explore EV charging station options and plan your route to a cleaner, more efficient future.
