EV owners now have more places to recharge in Baguio. ACMobility, Ayala’s mobility arm and provider of EV charging solutions and infrastructure in the Philippines, has partnered with the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) and the John Hay Management Corporation (JHMC) to accelerate the development of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (EVCS) in Camp John Hay, a key area under BCDA’s stewardship in Baguio City.
Driving sustainable tourism within Camp John Hay
Spread out in three different key locations within Camp John Hay — Garden Wing, Public Parking Area, and Golf Club — these hubs are equipped with modern charging facilities that cater to different EV needs. With eight new charge points available, including Baguio City’s only DC Fast Charger to date, travelers heading up to Baguio for the holiday break can recharge conveniently and travel with confidence. This new addition is also on top of the existing EVCS at Camp John Hay Technohub, with more AC and DC chargers to be operational in the next couple of months.

The Garden Wing hub will feature a 60-kW DC Fast Charger capable of powering vehicles in as fast as 30 minutes alongside two 22kW AC chargers. Meanwhile, the Public Parking Area will have two 22-kW chargers and the Golf Club hub will include two 7-kW chargers. All chargers are likewise supported by the Evro app, allowing users to locate stations, check availability, charge, and pay with ease.

“This partnership marks a key milestone in Camp John Hay’s pursuit of sustainable and eco-friendly tourism,” said Joshua M. Bingcang, President and CEO of BCDA. “By introducing reliable and accessible EV infrastructure at a location as strategic as Camp John Hay, we are creating not only greener and more convenient travel experience for residents and tourists, but also supporting ACMobility’s mission to provide accessible and reliable EV Charging across the country.”
Expanding the EV network nationwide
Looking ahead, ACMobility is also on track to deploy more charging points nationwide as we go into 2026 as part of their continuous efforts towards creating the Philippine EV Spine, a seamless network connecting cities and provinces to support the country’s transition to electrified mobility.
