As part of SG50, Singapore Power announced earlier this week that they are going to put 200 mobile charging stations island-wide for the public to use to charge their phones for free. All the units are expected to be installed by December this year, and will be put in use for 1 -2 years. These stations will be equipped with 10 individual charging slots (for up to 10 users simultaneously), and the slots will contain multiple charging tips such as mini and micro USBs which will fit most mobile phones and tablets, and a blank USB port for users to insert their own chargers.
To use the charging station, members of the public can follow the on-screen instructions displayed in English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil.
They will need to scan the barcode of a personal identification card such as an NRIC, driving licence, student pass or senior citizen concession card, and create a 4-digit personal identification number (PIN) before plugging in their device.
The same two-step authentication process is used to retrieve the device.
