More car owners are switching to electric vehicles (EVs), with higher fuel prices proving to be another factor.

EV charging stations are in many places, both indoors and outdoors. Given our tropical weather with about 2,000 hours of sunshine, we are not fully utilising solar power for open-air EV charging.

Wouldn’t it be eco-friendly and economical to incorporate solar-powered charging at open-air EV charging stations?
