The Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines (EVAP) continues to drive the growth of the local electric vehicle (EV) industry, following the remarkable success of the 12th Philippine Electric Vehicle Summit (PEVS) held last October. With EV sales reaching unprecedented levels, EVAP remains committed to promoting sustainable mobility and fostering collaboration across the industry.
Recent data indicates a significant surge in EV sales across the country, fueled by heightened consumer interest, improved charging infrastructure, and supportive government policies. PEVS 2024 played a key role in maintaining this momentum by providing a platform for industry leaders to showcase innovations, address challenges, and advocate for policy reforms.
“The progress we are witnessing today is the result of concerted efforts from the government, industry stakeholders, and advocates who share a common vision for the future of electric mobility,” said Edmund Araga, President of EVAP. “The 12th Philippine EV Summit was not merely an event—it was a catalyst for meaningful change, reinforcing our commitment to accelerating EV adoption in the country.”
Under the theme “Spark Change, Drive Electric,” the summit brought together key local and international industry players, featuring new EV model launches, policy discussions, and interactive engagements with the public. Additionally, the event strengthened partnerships with global EV organizations, positioning the Philippines as a key player in the evolving ASEAN EV market.
Moving forward, EVAP aims to build on this momentum through expanded public awareness campaigns, deeper collaborations with government agencies, and continued advocacy for policies that enhance EV accessibility for Filipino consumers.
“We are at a pivotal moment where EVs are no longer just an alternative but the way forward,” Araga added. “EVAP remains committed to driving innovation, securing investments, and advocating for policies that will transform sustainable mobility into a reality for all.”
With the rapid expansion of the local EV sector, EVAP remains steadfast in its mission to electrify the future, ensuring that the Philippines remains on the path toward a cleaner and more sustainable transportation landscape.
