# BYD’s Flash Charging expected to cost Under 60 cent/kWh

BYD has announced plans to expand its network of Flash Chargers into Europe. Images circulating in Chinese media recently showed the installation of a charger in Germany, though the exact location was not specified. When contacted by _electrive_, a BYD Germany spokesperson clarified that this was merely a ‘temporary Flash Charger for an internal event.’ BYD will announce the first official Flash Charger in Germany ‘when the time comes.’

The foundation of this roll-out is BYD’s second generation of ‘Flash Chargers.’ The T-shaped charging stations feature two charging cables, both of which can be connected to the same vehicle. A rail system allows the cables, which hang from above, to be moved easily despite their weight, which is increased by cooling requirements. The key promise: up to 1,500 kilowatts of charging power, available for all BYD vehicles equipped with the second-generation Blade Batteries.

During the European premiere of its Denza brand in April, BYD confirmed its plan to open 6,000 Flash Charging stations outside China within the next twelve months, including 3,000 in Europe. There are also early indications regarding pricing: Bono Ge, Head of BYD UK, told _Autocar_ that the company aims to keep costs below 50 pence per kWh, which currently converts to around 58 cents.

This European initiative follows a rapid domestic roll-out. According to industry reports, BYD had already installed around 6,100 fast-charging stations in China by the end of May—specifically in over 300 cities. A recently signed cooperation agreement with Sinopec is set to accelerate the expansion of the infrastructure via China’s largest petrol station network.
