Link Asset Management Limited, the manager of Link Real Estate Investment Trust (Link REIT, stock code: 823), announced that it has successfully reached its target to provide 3,000 public EV charging points at its car parks across Hong Kong by the end of 2024. This milestone establishes Link as the largest private provider of public EV charging points in Hong Kong.

In November 2022, Link set the goal of providing 3,000 EV charging points within two years. In achieving this target, Link partnered with nine leading EV charging service providers to install multiple types of EV charging facilities at all 121 of its car parks located across various districts in Hong Kong. The target was met on 23 December 2024. As of 20 January 2025, there is a total of 3,109 EV charging facilities provided at Link’s car parks.

George Hongchoy, Link’s Group Chief Executive Officer, said: “Link is committed to playing a significant role in powering Hong Kong’s transition to a greener and smarter city. This achievement ensures that Link meets the needs of EV drivers in Hong Kong, and it underscores our vision to embrace and drive sustainable practices for a better future. By helping to reduce carbon emissions and promoting a low-carbon lifestyle across the community, we demonstrate our dedication to sustainability at scale.”

Link’s achievement aligns with the Hong Kong Government’s commitment to achieving carbon neutrality before 2050, as outlined in the “Hong Kong Roadmap on Popularisation of Electric Vehicles.” This roadmap sets the goal of attaining zero vehicular emissions before 2050 through the promotion of green transport and widespread EV adoption.

To celebrate this milestone, Link is introducing a special EV free parking perk — EV Park with free enrollment for EV customers to enjoy one hour of free parking upon any spending at the shopping centres or fresh markets of the 43 participating car parks across the city, further supporting the growth of Hong Kong’s EV ecosystem.
