BYD marked a milestone in China's charging infrastructure on August 28, opening its 10,000th Flash Charging station at a ceremony held at the company's flagship site in Shenzhen's Longhua district.
The rollout, which began in earnest in March, has now reached the halfway point toward BYD's stated goal of 20,000 stations nationwide by the end of 2026.
The 10,000-station threshold arrived in under six months, with the network expanding at an average pace of roughly 55 new sites per day since deployment began, according to BYD's disclosures.
To hit 20,000 stations by December 31, BYD will need to roughly double that pace, adding close to 80 new stations a day for the rest of the year. The company's year-end target breaks down into 18,000 urban stations and 2,000 highway stations, a split meant to cover both daily commuting and long-distance road trips.
