2GO Group and the Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines (EVAP) are advancing electric mobility and sustainable transport across the country.
2GO is equipping its vessels with electric vehicle charging capabilities to further support the movement of EVs nationwide, the company said in a statement.
Passenger vessels MV 2GO Masikap and MV 2GO Masinag have been retrofitted to support EV transport, with plans to extend this capability to more ships in the fleet.
2GO said it is among the few transportation and logistics companies in the Philippines to integrate EV charging infrastructure into its sea freight services.
These vessels currently operate on key routes, including Manila–Davao–General Santos–Iloilo and Manila–Cebu–Manila, providing vital logistical support for EV distribution across strategic regions.
“We are excited to be EVAP’s official logistics partner in pushing for greener roads,” 2GO forwarding business unit head Faye Alonzo said.
“With our reliable capabilities, we ensure the safe and efficient delivery of electric vehicles across the Philippines. The growing demand for EVs in key cities where we operate—particularly Cebu and Davao—highlights our strategic role in supporting this transition,” Alonzo added.
EVAP, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the adoption of battery EVs in the Philippines, views the partnership as a key step toward making EVs more accessible across the archipelago.
“It is crucial for us to embrace electric vehicles to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, especially in urban areas like Metro Manila, Cebu, and Davao,” EVAP president Edmund Araga said.
“Having a reliable logistics partner like 2GO is essential to ensuring the nationwide availability and support of EVs,” Araga added.
As of April 2025, Metro Manila hosts more than 74 EV charging points across 18 key areas, with plans to expand to nearly 100 by year-end.
2GO maintains regular sailings from Manila to Cebu four times weekly, and to Davao and General Santos twice weekly, ensuring dependable schedules and consistent service for the transportation and distribution of goods nationwide.
