How will Electric Vehicles Impact Real Estate in Asia Pacific?
The Asia Pacific region, accounting for nearly two-thirds of global electric vehicle (EV) sales, is experiencing rapid growth in EV adoption, driving demand for public charging infrastructure. As EVs become more prevalent, real estate owners are urged to respond by incorporating EV charging solutions into new projects, assessing existing facilities for upgrades, and considering partnerships with Charging Point Operators and EV manufacturers to capitalize on this evolving landscape.
