JAKARTA The world's largest electric vehicle battery manufacturer, CATL, plans to increase the number of battery exchange stations (swap stations) by 1.5 times next year, after approaching its annual target by 2025.
Citing CarNewsChina, Wednesday, October 22, the Chinese battery giant is targeting to operate more than 2,500 battery exchange stations in more than 120 cities by 2026.
Its subsidiary, the Contemporary Amperex Energy Service Technology (CAES), continues to accelerate network development with a target of 1,000 swap stations by the end of 2025.
CATL has a long-term vision to expand its battery exchange ecosystem through strategic collaboration. The company targets an operation of between 10,000 and 30,000 swap stations in the future.
"By 2030, exchange of batteries, charging at home, and public charging will each meet a third of the energy needs of electric vehicle owners," said CATL CEO Robin Zeng.

For information, CATL officially entered the battery exchange sector on January 18, 2022 by launching the EVOGO brand, operated by CAES. Previously, Nio was a major player in this field.
Then on December 18, 2024, CATL introduced standard battery packages for passenger vehicles at the Choco-SEB ecosystem conference (Swapping Electric Block), as well as announcing plans for more aggressive infrastructure expansion.
The move is believed to provide peace of mind to electric vehicle users, as the battery replacement process only takes less than two minutes much faster than conventional charging.
