How can I pay for the charging fee?
You can either top up the wallet in CEM App and the charging fee will be deducted from the balance, use credit card (Visa, Mastercard and UnionPay) for one-time payment or use UnionPay frictionless payment.
How to use UnionPay Frictionless Payment?
First, you need to complete the binding of UnionPay credit card on the “UnionPay Frictionless Payment” page in CEM App. Then you choose “UnionPay Frictionless Payment” as payment method before charging. Upon completion of charging, the charging fee will be automatically charged to the bound UnionPay credit card.
What should I do if the UnionPay Frictionless Payment is unsuccessful?
If the frictionless payment fails, you will receive a push notification, and the charging fee will be automatically deducted from the wallet (regardless of the wallet balance). If the wallet balance becomes negative after deducting the charging fee, you must top up the wallet before starting the next charging session, regardless of which method you choose to pay the charging fee.
Please contact the bank to inquire about the reason for frictionless payment failure.
What should I do if the bound UnionPay credit card becomes invalid?
You need to bind a new UnionPay credit card on the “UnionPay Frictionless Payment” page in CEM App and set it as the “default card”. You can also remove the invalid one on the same page.
How many types of chargers are there? How many slow, medium and quick speed chargers are available?
There are currently 1333 EV chargers located in public car parks and streets across Macau, supporting national, European and Japanese standards (as of 6 Mar 2024). There are 165 quick chargers, 11 medium-speed chargers and 1157 slow chargers.
What do the different colors of indicator lights on the quick chargers (Brand: Efacec & Setec Power) mean?
The colors of the indicator lights on the charging station represent the following different situations:
- Green: The charging station is in normal condition and ready for charging
- Red: The “Emergency” button has been pressed or the charging station is out of order
- Blue: Charging in progress
- Flashing blue: The charging plug is connecting to the EV (only applicable to IEC and CCS plugs, CHAdeMO does not have this display)
Can the 3 charging plugs of the quick charger be used at the same time?
There are 3 charging plugs on the quick charger to serve the needs of different EV charging systems, they are CCS2 (direct current), CHAdeMO (direct current) and IEC Type 2 (alternating current). Most of CEM's quick chargers can only support charging 1 EV at a time, while some chargers can support either one of the DC charging (CCS2 or CHAdeMO) and AC charging (IEC Type 2) simultaneously. If it is displayed on the CEM app that the charger can be used for two parking spaces, it means that two EVs can be charged at the same time.
What should I be aware of when start charging an electric vehicle (EV)?
a) Mobile has good signal reception
b) Choose a suitable charging plug
c) Ensure the EV is turned off and doors are closed
d) Ensure proper connection between charging cable and EV
e) Confirm the EV has successfully started charging before leaving
The status “Charging” is displayed on my mobile, but why is the charging process interrupted after a while?
During the charging process, the charging station and the EV will communicate constantly. If the communication of either party is disturbed or interrupted, charging service will be interrupted. Customers need to unplug and re-start the charging process.
Meanwhile, when the EV is being charged to over 80% capacity, the charging rate will slow down automatically. If the maximum charging unit of this charging is reached (the factory pre-set level is usually 80%, it varies according to EV models), the EV will stop receiving high current electricity inflows, thus a rejection notice will be sent to the charging station.
How to stop charging? What should I be aware of?
You can stop charging via CEM mobile app or the link in CEM WeChat’s push notification. When charging is completed, please put the plug back to its holder and put the cables with care.
Caution: Do not unplug the charging plug during the charging process. If you want to stop charging, please follow the procedures of "Stop Charging".
The charging cable cannot be unplugged when charging is complete. What should I do?
Please make sure you follow the "Stop Charging" procedures first, and unplug the cable; or use the vehicle side control switch to unlock.
During the charging process, is the EV still charging if the charging station is found to be offline and “No relevant information” is displayed in mobile app? How do I stop charging?
In this case, the charging is still being carried out normally. However, the charging data cannot be updated in real time. The relevant data will be updated immediately after the charging station is online. If you need to stop charging when the charging station is offline, please call CEM Info Lineat 2833 9911.
What does the “Emergency” button on the charging station do?
The “Emergency” button is only for terminating charging when there is an emergency. Do not press this button unless it is an emergency.
Why is the charging speed lower than the output level of the charging station?
Charging speed is not only related to rated output of the charger and the battery status of the EV, it is also closely related to the battery management system (BMS) and the on-board charger (OBC) of the EV. The maximum power that can be received by the on-board chargers of different brands of EVs is different. It is recommended that users read the operation manual of the EV or check with the car manufacturer to avoid the failure to achieve fast charging when using quick chargers.
Which is better, quick or slow speed charging?
Generally speaking, quick charging refers to charging an EV with direct current, and it can charge 80% of the battery within 1.5 hours. Slow charging refers to charging with alternating current and it takes several hours to charge. Since the output current is large, quick charging saves time, but it can easily increase the heat of the battery which might decrease the battery capacity in the long run. The battery management system (BMS) in the car will automatically adjust the charging current according to the condition of its own battery, which can minimize the impact of quick charging.
Who is responsible if there is an accident or the device is damaged during charging? Is there a compensation mechanism if the vehicle is affected and damaged?
Self-charging stations provided by CEM in designated car parks operate on a highly stable and reliable network. Under no circumstances will CEM be liable for any losses incurred by the users arising from or related to the use of EV charging stations. If, due to the incorrect use of the EV charging station by the users, actions are brought or compensation demanded by third parties, users are solely responsible and shall indemnify CEM for all damages.
What should I do if I lose my phone and cannot stop charging?
For any emergencies, please call CEM’s Emergency Service at 2833 9922.
Can I stop charging via CEM WeChat if the charging was started in CEM App?
Yes. First, please make sure that the account bound to WeChat is the same as the account being used for charging. Then, follow the steps below to stop charging via CEM WeChat:
Step 1) Open CEM WeChat
Step 2) Click “About CEM”
Step 3) Click “Electric Vehicle”
Step 4) Click “Check charging status/Stop Charging”
Step 5) Click “Stop charging”
Do I have to bind my account to CEM WeChat for charging? How to bind?
Yes, your account must be bound to CEM WeChat before charging. Please follow CEM WeChat and bind your account via one of the following methods:
a) On-site binding:
Scan the QR code on charging station with WeChat scanner, and input your e-Service account’s username and password according to the indications, then press “Bind” to complete binding to start charging.
b) Advanced binding
Step 1) Open CEM WeChat
Step 2) Click “Service”
Step 3) Click “My Service Account”
Step 4) Click “Binding management”
Step 5) Input your e-Service account’s username and password, then click “Bind”.
An e-Service account may have multiple EV contracts registered. Can I login the same account with different mobiles to charge different EVs at the same time?
Yes, but you need to pay attention to the stability of the app. If more than one person logins the same account with different devices at the same time, it may lead to instability of the app.
What are the available top-up channels?
You can top up the wallet in CEM App through MPay, BOC Pay , ICBC ePay and BNU Pay. You can also visit our Customer Service Centres for cash top up.
Are there any other third-party top-up channels?
You can also top up through the mobile apps of MPay, BNU, ICBC e-Pay, Tai Fung Pay and NK+.
Is there any upper limit for the wallet balance?
Yes, the upper limit for wallet balance is MOP 2,500.
Is there a minimum balance required to start charging? If there is an insufficient wallet balance, can I still start charging?
The minimum balance requirement to initiate charging is only applicable to using the wallet. If you choose UnionPay credit card for one-time payment or UnionPay frictionless payment, there is no such restriction.
The minimum wallet balance required to start charging is MOP30, and charging will automatically stop after the balance is used up.
Can the wallet balance be refunded?
To terminate the use of the wallet, you can visit CEM to apply for cancellation and balance refund.
Can I top up via “Electronic Consumption Benefit Scheme”?
Topping up wallet via “Electronic Consumption Benefits” is not supported. Using “Electronic Consumption Benefits” to pay electricity bills is subject to relevant regulations, i.e. can only be used to purchase goods or services and cannot be exchanged for cash in any ways. Since the user can apply for a balance refund after canceling the wallet, which does not comply with the abovementioned regulation, thus topping up wallet through “Electronic Consumption Benefits” is not accepted.
How to use Credit Card to pay for the charging fee?
First, you need to complete the credit card payment verification in CEM APP, then we will pre-authorize MOP 800 that will only temporarily hold the credit card spending limit of MOP 800. Upon completion of charging, only the actual charging fee will be charged and the pre-authorized amount will be cancelled immediately.
If the charging does not start successfully upon completion of pre-authorization, normally the pre-authorized amount will be auto-cancelled by credit card issuing bank within 7-30 days. As the actual cancellation time varies from different issuing bank, it is recommended that you can directly check with your credit card issuing bank.
What is Tariff Clause Adjustment (TCA)?
TCA is set according to the cost of heavy fuel, natural gas and electricity importation of last quarter and is charged based on consumption. The adjustment is fixed quarterly.
What is the difference in charging time and charging fee at different charging speeds?
Generally, the battery capacity of electric vehicles (EVs) on the market is about 80 kWh. If it is charged from a remaining power level of 20% to 80%, 48 kWh is required to be charged. The following are the costs at different charging speeds and time periods. No matter which one is selected, it is cheaper than fuel.
Is it cheaper to drive an EV than a fuel vehicle?
Taking every 100 kilometers driven as an example, the fuel consumption of a fuel vehicle is about 11.1 liters, while the power consumption of an EV is about 20 kWh. Based on the oil price of MOP 13.66/liter in April 2024 (including discounts), the fuel cost is about MOP 152. Driving an EV is about 49%~84% cheaper than a fuel vehicle, i.e. about MOP75~128.
Does billing stop automatically when fully charged?
Charging and billing will automatically stop in the following situations: 1) The charging device receives a stop signal from the fully charged EV; 2) When the wallet balance is used up.
Some EVs will slow down the charging after being charged to 80%, how is this period billed?
Public and general charging tariffs are charged based on the charging consumption, the billing will not be affected.
Is the charging fee calculated according to the actual charging power?
Charging fee is calculated according to the rated output power of the selected charging facilities and the actual charging consumption during the tariff period. The actual charging power only reflects the input power that the EV can receive at that moment.
How will the fee be calculated when it is found that there is no electricity received after charging for a while?
If there is no electricity received by the EV, no consumption will be recorded, so it will not be billed.
🌟IEC slow charging stations have a new look
To help EV owners easily distinguish between IEC and GB/T charging stations, we have changed all the covers of IEC slow charging stations to green color, while GB/T slow charging stations are silver, making them easily identifiable.
At present, there are 1,157 slow charging stations installed in public car parks in Macau. Charging an EV is very convenient!
What is slow charging❓ What are the benefits❓
⚡Slow charging refers to charging with AC power at a rated output power not exceeding 7.4 kW
⚡ The low power of slow charging generates less heat, causing less damaging to the battery, which helps to prolong the battery life
⚡EV owners can park and charge their EVs in car parks when they are at work or at home, which suits their lifestyle
Simply download the CEM APP to charge at any of the charging stations installed by CEM across Macau!
You can now pay for EV charging fee conveniently with Visa and Mastercard‼️
From now on, EV owners can pay for EV charging fees through VISA and MASTERCARD credit cards. Simply select “Credit Card” as payment method before starting charging, then select “VISA/MASTERCARD” and complete the credit card payment verification, and you are all set!
*Note: we will pre-authorize MOP 800 from your credit card. Only the actual charging amount will be processed upon completing charging.
Why do I only get medium or slow charging speed when using a quick charging station?
Currently, EV batteries can only store direct current (DC). When charging with alternating current (AC) i.e., IEC Type 2 plug, the EV will automatically convert AC to DC in order to successfully store electricity. During the conversion process, the EV’s charging management system will limit the charging speed, usually to 7 kW, 11 kW or 22 kW* and therefore unable to achieve quick charging speeds of 25 kW or above.
Solution:
✅ Use CCS plug for DC charging!
❌ It is not recommended to use IEC Type 2 plug for AC charging.
*Varies by EV brand and model. Please check with car dealers for the maximum charging capacity of your EV.
What should I be aware of when start charging with CCS plug?
Most CCS EVs have a communication time limit for the charging port, usually between 30 seconds and 3 minutes (depending on the brand*). EV owners must initiate the charging process within this communication time limit to successfully charge. If the time limit is exceeded, the vehicle will reject the charging request, resulting in a charging failure. In such cases, the user must unplug the charger, wait for 1 minute for the vehicle and charging station to reset, and then plug in and retry.
Currently known EV models with time limits include: Mercedes-Benz EQA, EQB, EQC ; BYD M3, T3 ; Porsche Taycan.
* For details, please consult car dealers.
Bind UnionPay credit card to automatically pay EV charging fees
CEM has recently launched the “UnionPay Frictionless Payment” method for electric vehicle (EV) charging. You only need to bind your UnionPay credit card on the CEM APP, select “UnionPay Frictionless Payment” when charging, and the system will automatically deduct the charging fee directly from the bound credit card. It’s simple and secure.
Experience "UnionPay Frictionless Payment" now and start a convenient journey!
Warm reminder: Use a CCS plug for fast or medium-speed charging, as it can result in a faster charging speed compared to an IEC Type 2 plug.
IEC Type 2 may not allow you to receive maximum power output due to charging system configuration limitations within your EV. We suggest using CCS plug (DC charging) can increase power input and achieve better charging efficiency. Contact your vehicle manufacturer for charging settings info and choose the best mode for your needs.
Summer Charging Tips
Every electric vehicle is equipped with its own BMS system, which has the function of measuring the battery status. The system adjusts the charging speed according to the temperature to avoid overheating or overcooling of the battery. Overheating of the battery may result in slower charging speed, inability to charge, interrupted charging, unstable charging, and even shortened battery life.
To ensure optimal charging performance during the summer, it is recommended to pay attention to the following:
- Do not charge immediately after the vehicle has been exposed to sunlight for a long time.
- Avoid charging in sunlight-exposed environments.
- Avoid charging immediately after parking.
- Let the battery cool down before charging (for high usage vehicles, it is recommended to park and let the battery cool down for a period of time before charging).
Why did the power cut off shortly after starting the charging?
If the vehicle's battery is in an abnormal, sleeping, or unstable state, it may not be able to start charging normally. In this case, consider restarting the EV to resolve the it. Turn off the power and wait for at least two minutes. During this time, do not open the doors, touch the brake pedal, or touch the touch screen components. After two minutes, step on the brake pedal or open the door to wake up the EV. Then, scan the QR code on the charger again, insert the plug forcefully, and when you hear a "click" sound, it is connected in place. Finally, press "Start Charging" in CEM App to initiate the new connection.
Which is better, quick or slow speed charging?
Generally speaking, quick charging refers to charging an EV with direct current, and it can charge 80% of the battery within 1.5 hours. Slow charging refers to charging with alternating current and it takes several hours to charge. Since the output current is large, quick charging saves time, but it can easily increase the heat of the battery which might decrease the battery capacity in the long run. The battery management system (BMS) in the car will automatically adjust the charging current according to the condition of its own battery, which can minimize the impact of quick charging.
Did you know? When you use quick or medium-speed charger, charging speed of using CCS2 plug is considerably faster than when using an IEC Type 2 plug
Due to the setting of your registered EV brand, you are recommended to use CCS2 (DC charging plug) when using quick or medium-speed charger because it achieves better performance.
Remark: Charging time and the maximum power that can be received by the on-board chargers of different brands of EVs vary according to factors such as battery temperature, charging infrastructure and state of charge of the battery.
Why does the charging speed vary when using chargers of the same output level?
Charging speed is not only related to the rated output of the charger, but it is also closely related to the battery status of the EV. In general, when the EV is being charged to over 80% capacity, the charging rate will slow down automatically due to the battery management system (BMS) setting of electric vehicles. If the maximum charging unit of this charging is reached (the factory pre-set level is usually 80%, while some are 50%. It varies according to EV models), the EV will stop receiving high current electricity inflows, thus a rejection notice will be sent to the charging station.
Remarks: Battery Management System (BMS) is installed in each EV for its normal operation system, which is generally served for the measurement of the battery status and to prevent/avoid any failures caused by abnormal situation such as over-discharging/over-charging, battery is too hot or too cold. Different EV models have different BMS setting, which can stop the EV charging or adjust EV charging speed. The factors that affect the charging speed include battery temperature, state-of-charge (SOC) and the battery life (battery aging rate) etc.
Plug Type
For the plug CHAdeMO, it is a DC plug and mainly designed for the Japanese electric vehicle.
For the plug CCS/Combo-2, it is a DC plug and mainly designed for the European electric vehicle.
For IEC 62196 Type-2, there are AC socket and AC plug.
1. For an AC socket, all the electric vehicles can be charged with their own appropriate charging cable. For example for European vehicle with an IEC Type 2 – Type 2 charging cable, or a Japanese vehicle with an IEC Type 2 – Type 1 (SAE J1772) charging cable.
2. For an AC plug, all the electric vehicles which have the appropriate socket can be charged with this plug.
Aside from buying & maintenance cost, also need to consider:
1. charging speed --> as it will affect your routine charging plan
2. battery size --> as it determines how far you can drive after 1 full charge
3. driving cost --> kWh per km
Use Appropriate Charger
Quick Chargers can provide 3 phases AC supply for Type 2 Plugs. Since IEC62196 Type-2 AC plug can be 1 phase or 3 phases, some EV equips with a 1 phase on-board AC-DC converter still can connect with the Quick Charger AC Plugs, however the consumed power will be limited by the EV itself through the BMS.
If using Quick Charger, please use the fastest charging plugs that your vehicle can handle, for example for European vehicle with a DC CCS2 combo, a Japanese vehicle with a DC CHAdeMO, and for some other which the vehicle equipped with 3 phases on-board AC-DC converter can use 3 phases Type 2 Plugs.
ECO Mode
ECO mode is better suited for city driving due to frequent stops and accelerations. Rapid acceleration will waste more energy hence shorten the driving range. Eco Mode will provide smooth acceleration and longer range.
B Mode
For better Energy Efficiency, B Mode can recover energy during braking ( deceleration, especially downhill ) in order to gain longer driving range.

為構建綠色旅遊城市，需要從不同方面改善空氣質素。澳門空氣污染物的其中一部分是來自於車輛尾氣排放，因此，特區政府積極推動使用環保車輛，其中電動車尤其受到關注。現正公開諮詢的《澳門特區經濟和社會發展第二個五年規劃（2021至2025年）》建議，明年起新建的私人樓宇及商廈停車場的所有車位須預留電動車的慢充設施，政府並會把其列入樓宇建築標準內。第二個五年規劃還建議，明年起政府各部門換車時須購置電動車，新建的公共停車場須百分百配置電動車充電設施。
特區政府第二個五年規劃提出，未來五年內淘汰全澳所有「歐四」環保標準的重型客運車輛；政府帶頭推動使用電動車，新建政府辦公大樓內須為所有停車位預留慢速充電供電容量和基礎設施。現有的政府辦公大樓如具備條件需加設充電位，現有的公共停車場、街道公共泊位也要適當預留安裝充電設備。明年起新建的私人樓宇及商廈停車場的所有車位須預留電動車的慢充設施。
為推動使用電動車，特區政府除於2015年底制定了《電動車輛充電設施安全技術指引》，以確保充電設施安裝和使用安全外，亦已於澳門特區五年發展規劃（2016 至2020 年）中提出率先在2016至2019年在全澳合適的公共停車場設置200個輕型汽車充電位（現已由公共停車場拓展至公共道路泊車位），以釋除市民在外時需要充電的憂慮，提升市民使用電動車的意欲。另外，在新建公共房屋停車場亦會預留充電位。
全澳私家車充電位200 個 電單車兩個
由澳電安裝及管理的公共電動車充電位，暫時維持免費充電。截至2021年9月30日，全澳共有電動車2,071輛，其中輕型汽車1,553輛，重型汽車234輛，重型摩托車233輛，輕型摩托車51輛。現時全澳共有200個輕型汽車充電位，兩個電單車充電位，覆蓋本澳53個由交通事務局管理的輕型汽車公共停車場的42個公共停車場及七處公共道路。另外，望善樓停車場、望賢樓停車場及南灣（栢湖）停車場的電單車泊車區今年6月起設有電動電單車品牌的電池換電櫃，支援自助置換電池，但不具備充電功能，主要為提升更換電池的便捷性。
簡化充電車位安裝手續
為進一步推動使用電動車，政府冀與市民共同推動以「自用充電設施為主，公共充電設施為輔充電」模式。政府首先建設公共充電椿以作續航之用，市民則在私人停車位安裝自用充電椿以方便使用。
能源業發展辦公室（今年1 月已併入環保局）去年表示，從充電方便程度和經濟效益方面考慮，市民應以在私人停車位安裝自用充電椿及在晚間充電為主。由於快速充電椿的安裝成本較高、減少電池壽命、浪費電網資源等，同時，公共充電將實施收費，而新制定的私人充電收費取向將較公共充電的收費便宜，所以政府鼓勵市民在住宅樓宇的停車位安裝自用中/慢速充電椿，除方便、省錢外，在晚間非繁忙時間利用中/慢速充電椿充電，對電池使用壽命、提升電網效率，保護環境都有好處。
第14/2017號法律已允許通過張貼工程通知方式方便小業主在樓宇共同部分進行電力工程，簡化充電車位的安裝手續，而澳電亦可向申請者提供有關布線的建議。市民亦可聯同同一樓宇有興趣的用戶一起行動，一方面可以減少工程量，部分工程費用亦可一起分攤，冀望市民與大廈的管理處或管委會就工程作出協調，政府亦會指示澳電作出充分配合。
未來公屋均設「慢充」設備
運輸工務司司長羅立文今年8月在立法會全體會議上承認本澳最大的排放問題源自交通，現時政府新建的公屋車位都會安裝電動車充電設施，新城A區公屋的充電位百分百為慢充，因為快充較耗電，惟政府不會立法強制私樓停車場安裝充電位，又指現時電力公司其實有條件供應足夠電力予舊區的私樓安裝充電裝置，但問題是私樓大廈業主需要有共識，共同分擔電費。
公屋停車場試裝電單車充車櫃
交通事務局長林衍新指出，局方目前在栢湖、望賢、望善這三個公共停車場試行電單車充車櫃設施，方便電動電單車更換電池，目前正在測試，會視乎市場反應。希望下一步逐漸推開至氹仔中央公園、關閘停車場等。環保局長譚偉文則表示，現時全澳有200個充電車位，每個車位平均每日充電兩次，基本能滿足現有需求，當局會因應未來需求在各公共停車場相應增加充電位。
巴士方面，當局透過新巴士合同，規範巴士公司按照兩時間節點，逐步更換全澳960輛巴士，目前一間巴士公司成功引入增程式電動巴士，另一間亦正逐步引入。增程式電動巴士較符合本澳需要，因為若採用純電動巴士，只少需要18萬平方米的用地面積以及充電需時。至於發財巴方面，林衍新指，有61%的發財巴已使用新能源，其餘發財巴會按規定年期，即大約兩年後會全換上100%新能源巴士。

坊間一直指申請私人停車位電錶、更改電力計劃入則手續等繁瑣行政程序，成為推動居民購買電動車和安裝私人充電樁的最大阻力和限制。負責項目機構之一的澳電表示，根據政府指引，申請只需四步驟。
全澳充電位二百個
現時各區電動車充電位有多少？充電位近年的變化以及未來會否增加？澳電表示，現時已於澳路氹合共四十二個公共停車場（覆蓋率近八成）及七條街道裝設了充電站，提供二百個不同充電速度的充電位。亦會按照特區政府及部門規劃，全力配合未來公共或私人電動車充電設施的發展。澳電一直積極協助客戶安裝私人充電設施，截至今年九月十七日，已收到一百二十三份私人電動車供電申請，當中一百○五個已完成安裝電錶。超過八成的申請是近兩年的。
私人電動車供電申請手續如何？有否簡化？澳電表示，私人電動車供電申請只需四步驟：一、申請人先向澳電諮詢供電可行性；二、聘請註冊技術員及電業工程人員編制安裝充電設施的電力設計方案，並提交申請核准更改工程計劃給土地工務運輸局審批。三、按照法律法規要求以及由土地工務運輸局和環境保護局發出的行政指引開展工程，包括依法張貼工程通知書等要求；四、取得土地工務運輸局核准的電力設計方案（蓋章圖則）後，申請人可向澳電申請供電。
舊廈申請須先諮詢
"二五規劃"諮詢文本提到，未來五年內淘汰全澳所有"歐四"環保標準的重型客運車輛。繼續帶頭推動使用電動車，新建政府辦公大樓內須為所有停車位預留慢速充電供電容量和基礎設施，並在新建私人樓宇引入相關要求。具條件的現有政府辦公大樓加設充電位，現有的公共停車場、街道公共泊位適當預留安裝充電設備。
澳電表示，已於二○一八年修訂《建築物電器裝置低壓供電一般技術要求》，要求新建建築物內停車場必須百分百配備電動車充電基礎建設（如電纜托架、電箱、分線箱及電錶箱等）及預留電量。
現有建築物由於原設計未有考慮充電設施用電，客戶需先向澳電諮詢供電的可行性，另建議集合其他停車位用戶一同加裝充電設施，並與大廈物管公司／管委會商討供電方案及大廈整體用電分配並取得共識，再開展申請程序。

To build a green tourism city, air quality must be improved from different aspects. As part of Macau's air pollutants comes from vehicle exhaust emissions, the government is actively promoting the use of eco-friendly vehicles, with EVs in the spotlight. With the technological progress and mass production of EVs, more models are available for selection and their prices may drop to the levels close to traditional fuel vehicles, making them popular among more users.
In order to further promote the use of EVs, the government would work with the public to make “private charging facilities for daily use and public charging as supplementary” happen. The government will first build public charging points for journey pit-stops, while the public are encouraged to install their own chargers at private parking spaces for daily battery top-up.
Of the 200 public charging parking spaces first proposed by the government in the "Five-Year Development Plan (2016-2020)", 196 have been in place, covering 42 public parking lots under the jurisdiction of the DSAT (with a coverage rate of 80%) ) and six parking spaces on public road (commonly known as "metre parking spaces"); the installation of the remaining four chargers at a metre parking space area has been sped up to go along with the road works in the respective area. These 200 public charging spaces will answer the needs for mid-journey charging in the medium to long run in Macau.
In terms of convenience and economic benefits, citizens are advised to install their own chargers at private parking spaces for daily use and charge up the battery at night. Quick chargers incur higher installation costs and may shorten the battery life as well as waste grid resources. Meanwhile, the fee for public charging will be imposed, and new fee for private charging will be cheaper than that of public charging. Therefore, citizens are encouraged to install self-use slow and medium chargers at residential parking spaces, which will be more convenient and economical. Besides, charging EV batteries with slow/medium chargers in the night time can extend battery life, improve grid efficiency, as well as protect the environment.
At present, the Law No. 14/2017 allows minority owners to carry out electric engineering works in common parts of the building by posting notices of works to simplify the installation procedures. Moreover, CEM can also provide advice on electric wiring to the applicants. Residents living in the same building can collaborate to install private chargers in order to facilitate installation and share the cost. Coordination between residents and property management offices or committees are encouraged to facilitate installation. The government would direct CEM to provide full support in this regard.
With medium/slow chargers at private parking spaces, users enjoy multiple benefits:
- charging EV battery anytime;
- slowing the ageing of EV batteries and extending their service life to save money;
- spending less on facilities, installation, electricity and electrical work compared to fast chargers;
- improving grid efficiency and protecting environment through night-time charging; and
- more convenient and cost-effective compared to public chargers, which will incur higher fees.
