The National Energy Administration held a press conference on the 31st to introduce the construction of charging infrastructure in the first half of the year. As of the end of June this year, the total number of charging piles in the country reached 10.244 million, a year-on-year increase of 54%; of which 3.122 million were public piles and 7.122 million were private piles. The total rated power of public piles exceeded 110 million kilowatts, ensuring the charging needs of 24 million new energy vehicles.

Zhang Xing, deputy director of the General Affairs Department of the National Energy Administration, said that in the first half of the year, the charging volume of new energy vehicles nationwide was about 51.3 billion kWh, a year-on-year increase of 40%. During the May Day holiday this year, the daily charging volume of highways hit a record high.

In order to create an inter-city charging network that effectively meets the long-distance travel needs of new energy vehicles, the National Energy Administration continues to increase the layout of charging facilities. As of now, a total of 27,200 charging piles have been built in highway service areas (including parking areas), basically covering all provinces in the country.

The National Energy Administration organized some counties and towns to carry out the construction and application of charging infrastructure. More than one-third of the provinces in the country have deployed charging facilities in all towns, which has strongly supported the development of new energy vehicles in rural areas.
