With a focus on Ultra-Fast Charging Li-ion batteries for Electric Vehicles (EV) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), Microvast is now becoming the leader of Ultra-Fast Charging battery technology in the world and has already supplied over 6,500 units battery system for electric and hybrid commercial vehicles worldwide. The Chinese State Grid has built and opened the largest ultra - fast EV charging station in Beijing . The 26,500 m2 EV charging complex at Xiaoying Terminal has 25 chargers at 360 kW and five chargers at 90 kW , offering fast charging for 30 urban transit buses at the same time . Future facility and charging point expansions are already planned out for 2016 - 2020 to accommodate more bus routes converting to fast charging electric vehicles . Compared to an earlier battery swapping system adopted by Beijing to experiment on improving electric vehicle operating efficiency and reducing down - time , the ultra - fast hybrid battery and charger system requires neither the investment and large storage space footprint for extra batteries , nor the high cost of automated robotic battery - swapping infrastructure , offering obvious advantages to customers and utility companies with more rapid ROI . This is particularly timely news as it comes as Beijing declares it ’s first - ever red alert for pollution .
