Yesterday, Meralco officially opened it’s first public charging station for electric cars. Officially called Meralco eVehicle Power Station, the charging station is located inside the Meralco Compound in Pasig City.
As more and more electric cars and hybrid cars are being sold in the Philippines, the need for more accessible charging stations like this one becomes evident.

Electric vehicles like the eTrikes in Taguig and the eJeepneys that ply the routes of Makati are the among the few ones that will benefit from this, alongside other commercial units from Honda or Toyota. On a related note, the hybrid Honda CR-Z will be launching next week with a starting price of Php1.4USD 0.02INR 2EUR 0.02CNY 0.17 Million.
Charging is done on a “per kilowatt” basis with a flat rate of about Php12USD 0.20INR 17EUR 0.20CNY 1/kWHr.

*I’ll admit mdyo outdated ang info ko but what happened to the Pinoy Scinetist named Dingel ???
@damarkcus dahil yang sinasabi mong technology ay di pa nagmamaterialize, marami na ang nagpropose ng patent about jan pero wala pang napoprove na talagang gumagana,tska ung mga pinropose nila ay impractical,example ay ung isang patent na masyadong maraming/malakas na energy ang kailangan para sa electrolysis(ito ung paghihiwalay ng oxygen molecules sa hydrogen)tska ang isa pang problem ay masyadong kakaunting hydrogen lang ang nakukuha,sobrang kaunti na halos wala nang makakarating na hydrogen sa makina para gumana dahil sa ibat ibang proseso ng paghihiwalay
Germany daw ang nakinabang dun..
ang tatanga naman. ano ba gusto nyo perpekto agad. ang tatanga talaga. kaya nga may salitang improvement. ang importante ay nasimulan na. mga tanga. tandaan nyo muubos din ang langis sa mundo. mga tae
may tesla model s na ba dito? ganda naman neto
Hahaha problema mahal ang koryente, mahal din gasolina, pero sana maglabas narin si toyota ng Prius dito
oi magsama kayo ni benchmark hahaha parehas kayung tanga may prius na dito sa pilipinas hahaha sobrang tagal na
the question is, gano katagal mag charge? Baka naman yun na lang nagawa mo buong araw.
Okay magcharge kapag pasok ang sasakyan mo sa number coding, para kahit hindi mo ginagamit, alam mo nagchacharge.
actually it really takes time, about 8-12 hrs depending on the car itself kaya di pa rin economical gumamit ng electric car pero in the next years probably by 2020 we can now charge anything in just few seconds! =))
Baka tinayo yan para sa pag charge ng kotse ni mvp?
It should be built in Taguig or Makati, para makinabang ang ejeepneys at etrycs.
Do you think MVP will pay them kapag nagpa charge yan ng kotse nya? I don’t think so…loss na yan, at lalabas yan sa electric bill natin. Tsk tsk tsk
Sorry bench pero that was indeed a dumb post. Winner ka most dumbest comment sa post na to.
@benchmark hahaha isa na namang bobo ang nagcomment!cguro di mo alam na may share c MVP sa meralco???hahaha malamang d nya yan babayaran d naman kawalan sa meralco kung saan stockholder sya ang P1000 full tank noh hahaha
STUPIDO!!!
Ikaw ang isa sa mga pinaka STUPID dito.
so, si MVP ang first and only customer? hehe’
Tesla Model S offers 60 kWh and 85kWh batteries which translates to Php 720 and Php 1020 for a “full tank” (assuming that’s how the battery becomes full…)
60 kWh model can run up to 330 kilometers while to 85 kWh 426 kilometers… (km rating is running on a constant 20mph) [see Tesla Motor’s page]
O tapos pag dinaan mo naman kotse mo sa gitna ng EDSA, mauubos lang din baterya mo dahil sa traffic. haha
mag review ka muna tungkol sa hybrid cars bago mag post 😉
