CCTV News: Recently, the China Charging Alliance released the operation of the national electric vehicle charging and swapping infrastructure in January 2025. In January 2025, the number of public charging piles increased by 181,000 compared with December 2024, and the year-on-year increase of 35.1% in January. As of January 2025, member units in the alliance reported a total of 3.76 million public charging piles, including 1.714 million DC charging piles and 2.046 million AC charging piles. From February 2024 to January 2025, the average monthly increase of about 81,000 public charging piles was added.
The proportion of public charging piles built in the TOP10 areas of Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Shandong, Henan, Anhui, Hubei, Sichuan and Beijing accounted for 67.9%. The national charging capacity is mainly concentrated in provinces such as Guangdong, Jiangsu, Hebei, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Shandong, Fujian, Henan, Shaanxi, etc. The power flow is mainly buses and passenger cars, and other types of vehicles such as sanitation logistics vehicles and taxis account for a small proportion. In January 2025, the total charging capacity of the country was about 6.00 billion kWh, an increase of 90 million kWh from the previous month, an increase of 42.1% year-on-year and 1.5% month-on-month.
In January 2025, the increase in charging infrastructure was 395,000 units, an increase of 49.5% year-on-year. Among them, the increase in public charging piles was 181,000, an increase of 222.5% year-on-year, and the increase in private charging piles built with vehicles was 214,000, an increase of 2.9% year-on-year. As of January 2025, the cumulative number of charging infrastructure nationwide was 13.213 million units, an increase of 49.1% year-on-year.
In January 2025, the increase in charging infrastructure was 395,000 units, and the domestic sales of new energy vehicles were 793,000 units. Charging infrastructure and new energy vehicles continued to grow rapidly. The pile-to-car incremental ratio is 1:2, and the construction of charging infrastructure can basically meet the rapid development of new energy vehicles.
