Chinese EV giant, BYD, is rolling out over 4,000 ultra-powerful 1,360 kW chargers capable of juicing up an EV with 250 miles of range in just five minutes.
UK-based tech firm, CrowdCharge, has developed an AI-powered simulator to optimize the layout and energy configuration of charging infrastructure projects, leading to faster rollouts and smaller grid upgrades.
The US is closely watching the developments in China and the UK, as megawatt-level chargers are now being considered for use in next-gen passenger EVs, and companies like Electrify America are experimenting with higher-output chargers.
The combination of megawatt-level chargers and AI-powered rollout strategies could become the global blueprint for EV infrastructure, making fast charging more accessible and scalable worldwide.
