SP has partnered Pyxis to launch our direct-current fast-charging point for electric harbour crafts in a trial for the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore.

The 150kW direct current charger will be installed at Marina South Pier from March 2024 in a two-year pilot to test the charging concept and operations for full-electric harbour crafts (e-HC) in Singapore. The charging point uses the same technology used in SP Group’s electric vehicle charging stations, with technical improvements for maritime application.

Insights from the data collected will also contribute towards formulating national standards to increase the growth of e-HCs in Singapore.
