The future of mobility in the Philippines is electric, and the Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines (EVAP) is charging ahead with even greater momentum. Following the overwhelming success of the 12th Philippine Electric Vehicle Summit (PEVS) last October, the local EV industry is witnessing record-breaking sales and growing interest from consumers, businesses, and policymakers alike.
With demand for EVs on the rise, driven by better charging infrastructure and strong government support, the PEVS 2024 summit played a crucial role in keeping the industry’s momentum strong. The event provided a platform for industry leaders to unveil cutting-edge innovations, tackle challenges, and drive essential policy discussions.
“What we’re seeing now is proof that the Philippines is ready for an electric future,” said Edmund Araga, President of EVAP. “The 12th Philippine EV Summit wasn’t just another industry event—it was a movement that ignited real progress, and we’re excited to build on this success.”
Under the theme “Spark Change, Drive Electric,” the summit featured major EV model launches, engaging policy talks, and hands-on activities that brought the future of mobility closer to the public. It also strengthened global collaborations, reinforcing the Philippines’ position as a rising player in the ASEAN EV market.
Looking ahead, EVAP is gearing up for bigger initiatives to accelerate EV adoption. These include nationwide awareness campaigns, stronger partnerships with the government, and relentless advocacy for policies that make EVs more affordable and accessible to Filipinos.
“We’re at a turning point—EVs are no longer just an option, they’re the future,” Araga added. “EVAP is fully committed to pushing innovation, securing investments, and making sustainable mobility a reality for all Filipinos.”
With the industry growing at an unprecedented pace, EVAP remains driven to keep the momentum going, ensuring that the Philippines stays on track toward a cleaner, greener, and more electrified future.
