Key Highlights of the Report
1. Massive Deployment of Charging Stations
By the end of 2025, GAC Energy aims to operate a staggering 23,274 autonomous charging stations, spanning 31 provinces and 211 cities. Among these, 17,577 are direct current (DC) charging stations, which are vital for fast recharging procedures.
2. Vast User Base
The report indicates that GAC Energy's charging stations are expected to serve approximately 8.92 million users, delivering a total of 1.43 billion kWh of electricity by the end of 2025, establishing GAC Energy as the industry leader in high-voltage fast-charging solutions, particularly with charging capacities reaching 1000V.
3. Technological Enhancements
In the pursuit of providing the most efficient charging experience, GAC Energy has consistently upgraded its ultra-fast charging technology. Recently, charging stations have achieved a remarkable output of 640 kW, even enhancing individual unit capabilities to 720 kW and 800 A. Furthermore, in May 2025, the implementation of an AI-powered cloud management platform vastly improved real-time control and automated operations, elevating equipment availability to an impressive 99.2%.
4. Expanding User Engagement
GAC Energy's commitment to enhancing user experience is evident through its continuous growth in charging service sessions. As of March 2025, the company surpassed 100 million total charging sessions, supported by a user base of over 5 million. The 24/7 operation ensures hassle-free journeys for EV owners.
