V-GREEN, a global EV charging infrastructure development company, has partnered with the Provincial Government of Bataan and Clean Fuel, one of the Philippines’ leading independent fuel providers, to accelerate the expansion of EV charging and battery swapping infrastructure across key high-traffic locations in the provinces of Bataan and Cavite.
The partnerships were formalised through the signing of Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs), aimed at strengthening EV accessibility and supporting the growing adoption of electric mobility in the Philippines.
According to the company, the initiative aligns with V-GREEN’s long-term strategy to deliver a more seamless and convenient ownership experience for both electric car users and electric two-wheeler customers.
As part of the agreement with the Provincial Government of Bataan, V-GREEN will collaborate on the planning, deployment, and operation of a province-wide EV charging network. The infrastructure rollout will span one city and 11 municipalities, positioning Bataan as a potential benchmark region for EV adoption in the Philippines.
The collaboration with Clean Fuel is expected to further strengthen charging accessibility by leveraging strategic fuel station locations to support the country’s emerging EV ecosystem.
Specifically, V-GREEN targets the deployment of 600 charging stations and 1,200 battery swapping stations across Bataan. The company will be responsible for the supply, installation, operation, and maintenance of the charging network, while the Provincial Government of Bataan will facilitate permits, endorse strategic locations, and coordinate with local government units.
In parallel, V-GREEN has also signed an MOU with Clean Fuel to explore the development of EV charging stations at high-traffic fuel stations in Dasmariñas, Cavite.
As one of the leading independent fuel companies in the Philippines, with a network of more than 100 stations across Luzon, Clean Fuel also shares V-GREEN’s vision of promoting greener mobility and enhancing the customer experience. The collaboration will focus on identifying suitable locations and the potential integration of EV infrastructure into Clean Fuel’s existing retail network, making charging more convenient by allowing users to charge at familiar stops along their journeys.
The new agreements lay important groundwork for VinFast’s upcoming launch of electric scooters in the Philippines, ensuring battery swapping infrastructure availability from day one. At the same time, the expanded charging network will continue enhancing convenience for existing VinFast electric car users, contributing to a more comprehensive electric mobility ecosystem in the country.
Hon. Jose Enrique S. Garcia III, Governor of Bataan, said: “This collaboration reflects our commitment to advancing sustainable mobility in our province. By working with V-GREEN, we are building the foundation for an EV ecosystem that promotes innovation, strengthens environmental responsibility, and prioritizes long-term development.”
Mr. Nguyen Anh Quynh, Global CEO of V-GREEN, said: “Expanding EV infrastructure requires both scale and accessibility. Through our partnerships with government and private sector stakeholders, we are building a charging network that supports real-world usage and makes electric mobility more practical for Filipino drivers.”
V-GREEN was founded by VinFast founder Mr. Pham Nhat Vuong, with the goal of investing in and developing charging infrastructure systems to support VinFast’s global expansion, with the Philippines identified as one of its key markets. By expanding infrastructure at both the national and local levels, V-GREEN continues to reinforce its pioneering role in making EV charging and battery swapping more accessible, widespread, and practical for Filipino consumers.
