A total of 74 fully operational charging points across 18 locations, including offices, malls, condominiums, and more sites is being targeted by ACMobility, the mobility solutions arm of the Ayala Group and a leader in electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure, in Makati, one of the leading sustainable cities in Metro Manila.
The expansion aims to provide residents and visitors easy access to state-of-the-art charging stations as Makati solidifies its role as a central hub for electric mobility. It sets benchmarks for eco-friendly initiatives and responsible governance, from strictly enforced waste regulations to innovative programs such as barangay-level recycling centers that cultivated a culture of environmental stewardship among its residents.
“ACMobility is excited to enhance Makati’s mobility infrastructure with a comprehensive charging network, ensuring convenient and efficient solutions for residents and visitors. As a key city for our EV ecosystem expansion, Makati exemplifies the potential of electric mobility in urban centers, and we are dedicated to meeting its evolving needs toward a greener future,” said ACMobility chief executive officer Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala.
In collaboration with Ayala Land and the Makati Central Estate Association (MACEA), ACMobility will expand the network in Q1 2025 with 27 additional charge points, including 19 DC fast charge points that provide significantly reduced charging times. Among the key additions are ultra-fast chargers at the Corinthian and Legaspi car parks, designed to enhance convenience for EV users across the city.
ACMobility spearheaded the expansion of Makati’s EV charging network with 47 operational charging points strategically located across the city that = includes carparks at notable sites like Valero 2, Dela Rosa 1, and key areas such as the Makati Stock Exchange and Solaris One
For her part, Makati mayor Abby Binay said: “As one of the country’s most sustainable cities, Makati continues to lead by example in building a future-ready urban environment. By boosting our EV infrastructure through ACMobility, we commit to the integration of cleaner technologies into the daily life of Makatizens. As such, we look forward to the expansion of ACMobility’s EV charging stations not only within the business district but also outside of it, making it possible for the entire Makati community to experience the benefits of electric vehicles.”
