The City of Makati is shaping up to be one of the epicenters of the EV movement in the Philippines. There seem to be more EVs and hybrids driving through Makati’s roads and streets each day, while the city’s malls, offices, and residential areas have been allotting more space for EV chargers.
That change in infrastructure has made the adoption of new energy vehicles (NEVs) much more practical for the citizens of Makati. Financially and environmentally, driving an EV has become a realistic option for today’s motorists thanks to the number of charging stations available.
ACMobility, the Ayala Group’s mobility company, has been one of the leaders in bolstering the country’s EV charging network, especially in Makati City.

At the time of writing, ACMobility currently has 47 EV charging hubs strategically placed in convenient locations all across the city. Certain residential areas, office buildings, and most commercial centers in Makati house at least one of these charging points.
And to make EV charging even more convenient and accessible, ACMobility has committed to establishing 27 more charging points before the end of the first quarter of 2025, bringing the total in Makati to a grand 74.
ACMobility has also promised to deliver an entire suite of services with its charging points. A number of ACMobility stations have two to four chargers that offer both AC or high-powered DC charging for quick refills. In fact, 19 of those incoming 27 charging points will be equipped with DC fast charging.
In addition to fast charging, ACMobility also plans to keep select chargers operational 24/7, making charging more accessible for early-bird or night-owl drivers.
While Makati’s EV infrastructure continues to grow, ACMobility is also working to expand its network of charging stations and NEV distribution. Motorists can use ACMobility charging stations for P28.5/kWh for AC charging, and P35/kWh for DC charging.
