EV drivers can fully charge their vehicles in 30 minutes at any of SP’s charging points located at commercial buildings, industrial sites and educational sites. The points are also close to amenities such as food centres to offer drivers convenience whilst waiting for their vehicles to be charged.

According to SP, there are two direct current (DC) and two alternating current (AC) chargers at each of its locations in Techplace 1, Hyflux Innovation Centre, Techlink, Corporation Place, The Kendall and The Capricorn. There are 4 of each charges at the Alexandra Technopark, whilst three of each are located at Singapore Polytechnic.

The SP charging points at Singapore Polytechnic will also serve as an education and research platform as part of Singapore Polytechnic’s engineering curriculum to train students and adult learners, the firm revealed.

To use the charging points, EV drivers can use the SP Utilities mobile application to search for the nearest available charging point, receive updates of their charging sessions and make payments.

The cost of using the SP charging points will be regularly adjusted based on the prevailing electricity costs in Singapore, the firm noted.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
