Amphawa temple offers free EV charge to devotees until August 12

Siripong Phantharaksakul, an engineer in charge of the installation, said the chargers were installed by Friendly Charge Co Ltd and they are the Delta AC Mini Plus model with 7.4 kWatt hour charging capacity.

He added that the Type-2 head supports about 95% of EVs in the market.

The temple is popular among Thai devotees, who have been donating money to the temple for years. The abbot said that apart from installing the EV chargers, the temple has also donated 1.5 million to Amphawa Hospital to install a solar panel system and save up to 30,000 baht a month in electricity costs.
