Shell Opens EV Charging Station In BGC


Shell Pilipinas Corporation and sustainable real estate leader, NEO inaugurated its latest Shell Recharge EV offering at Seven/NEO Bonifacio Global City Taguig.

The latest addition to the Shell EV charging stations at SLEX Mamplasan and TPLEX Rosario La Union, the one located at Seven/NEO BGC is currently free of charge.

The Shell Recharge charging station at Seven/NEO BGC has two 22-kW AC chargers. And true to the purpose of sustainable decarbonization, these EV chargers are powered 100 percent with renewable geothermal energy. This is Shell’s first 100 percent geothermal powered charger in the world.

At the inauguration, the first Electric Vehicles to charge were Shell’s very own fleet of electric service vehicles used to service Shell staff from Shell Business Operations Manila.

At the event, Shell Vice President for Mobility Randy Del Valle shared, “Shell is already a global leader in the EV space and we are happy to work with our customers and partners across private and public sectors as we decarbonize Mobility and power progress in the Philippines. NEO is a leader in sustainable real estate and shares Shell’s vision of a lower carbon future.”

NEO is led by NEO CEO Raymond Rufino, who also sits in the Urban Land Institute FY24 advisory board.

  2. How much is it to charge? Would it be cheaper to charge than to fill up gas?
