The Manila Electric Company (Meralco) has committed to aggressively push the development of vital infrastructure necessary to advance the adoption of electric vehicles (EV) through its network and capabilities.
As a testament to that, Meralco will electrify 25 percent of its own vehicle fleet by 2030. Meralco has so far converted 156 or 7 percent of its fleet to EVs and installed 39 EV charging stations to serve the daily operational needs of its sector offices and business centers.
Through its green mobility unit, Movem Electric Inc., Meralco already deployed 247 EVs and installed 139 charging stations in collaboration with private sector partners and institutional clients.
+18% growth in 7 years ain't aggressive at all. Surprising, given that they'll benefit the most from the consumer adoption of EVs. They should begin with themselves, the people who charge our high electricity rates.
