Shock and Awe in Makati

ACMobility has launched the country’s fastest electric vehicle (EV) chargers in Makati, rolling out 240 kW and 480 kW chargers to drastically cut charging times for Filipino EV users.

Installed at the Corinthians Carpark in partnership with Makati Commercial Estate Association (MACEA) and Ayala Land Inc. (ALI), these high-powered chargers can top up compatible EVs in just 10 to 15 minutes. A second site at the Leviste Carpark is also in the works.

The Corinthians site includes nine DC CCS2 slots—four of which are 240 kW dual-gun chargers, and one is a 480 kW UltraFast charger, the fastest in the country. It even has a pull-through bay designed for larger EVs like minibuses. Each unit is powered by 1000-amp air-cooled cables.

According to ACMobility’s Carla Buencamino, this initiative puts EV charging right where people need it—at the heart of a dense business and residential district. The company’s Evro app connects users to this network, allowing them to find stations, monitor charging sessions, and pay cashless. Charging costs ₱35/kWh, with discounts available for members.

Makati is now ACMobility’s most electrified city, with 70 active charging points across 16 locations. This number will grow to 100 points by year-end, helping the company reach its target of 700 charging points nationwide.

Importantly, the new chargers are powered by 100% renewable energy through ACMobility’s collaboration with ACEN Renewable Energy Solutions, under the Department of Energy’s Green Energy Option Program (GEOP). This lets users charge with clean energy—solar, wind, or geothermal—without requiring on-site installations.

To reach underserved areas, ACMobility also launched Power-on-Wheels (POW), mobile DC fast chargers that can be deployed in cities like Taguig, Mandaluyong, Muntinlupa, and more.

This expansion supports the Philippine EV Spine—ACMobility’s vision of a nationwide web of fast-charging stations, aiming to make electric driving seamless across the country.
