Beijing has just hit a monumental milestone in its push towards sustainable transportation. The National Energy Administration announced that the country now boasts over 2 million electric vehicle (EV) charging points, cementing its position as the global leader in EV infrastructure.
By the end of December 2025, a staggering 2.092 million charging points had been installed across China. This vast network is fully equipped to support more than 4 million new energy vehicles, marking a significant leap in the nation’s green mobility ambitions.
Of these, 4.717 million are public charging points, while a whopping 15.375 million are private ones. This blend of public accessibility and private convenience underscores China’s comprehensive approach to EV adoption.
The growth trajectory is nothing short of explosive. It took just 18 months to double the number from 1 million to 2 million—a pace that outstrips previous expansions. Key highlights include rapid scaling, enhanced efficiency, and broad coverage.
Public charging stations now average 46.5 kilowatts of power, a 33% jump from 2024 levels. Over 98% of highway service areas feature 71,500 charging points, and 19 provinces have achieved full rural coverage. This infrastructure is not just growing; it’s transforming how China moves.
