As e-trykes and other e-vehicles (EVs) start to ply on Metro Manila streets, the Department of Science and Technology gears up its support to these new modes of transport. One of DOST-supported initiatives is a locally developed facility that can charge e-vehicles in less than 30 minutes instead of the usual six hours. This quick charging station for EVs will soon be available in Mandaluyong City.

The facility is called Rapid Charging E-Vehicle Station, or simply CharM – a project by the University of the Philippines-Electrical and Electronics Engineering Institute (UP-EEEI) with P15 million funding from the Philippine Council for Industry, Energy and Emerging Technology Research and Development (PCIEERD) of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST).

The CharM for e-trykes, also called Charging in Minutes, is a new technology in the country.

“Balik puso, balik Pinas.” This was the call of Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Secretary Mario G. Montejo to Filipino scientists based abroad during the Gala Night for Balik-Scientists held last October 10 at the EDSA Shangri-la Manila, Mandaluyong City.

Montejo lauded the scientists who have returned under the DOST’s Balik Scientist Program (BSP) “offering their life’s work as shining testimony to the power of knowledge sharing and good old Pinoy bayanihan”, and urged others to do the same.
