1. Showcasing the prime location of the Delta EV Charging Station at Subic Bay Freeport Zone to serve visitors. As the distance from NAIA Terminal 1 to Subic is 174 km, the new public charging facility at Unioil Subic Station will be a welcome addition for EV drivers.
2. Raising awareness among nearby public and private establishments with parking areas about the IRR of the EVIDA Law RA 11697 Rule V Sections 20 to 24 that will have the full sweep implementation by July 2023.
3. Inviting EV prime movers in the Philippines like Hyundai and Nissan to raise awareness among the public on the various EV models available in the market and the latest EV technologies.
At the event, Delta demonstrated the dual charging interface and the simultaneous charging capability of the Delta DC Wallbox 25 kW charger. A Hyundai Ioniq 5 was charged with a CCS2 charging gun while a Nissan LEAF was charged with a CHAdeMO charging gun at the same time.
