HONG KONG, Oct 22, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In late summer and early autumn, the underground parking lot of Chengdu ICC (International Commerce District) witnessed a technological breakthrough that redefined the traditional charging model for new-energy vehicles. Jointly developed by Shoucheng Holdings （0697.HK）and its portfolio company Wisson Technology, China’s first ‘Automated Charging Robot Pop-up Experience Station’ has successfully concluded after 30 days of operation.Powered by Wisson’s proprietary FlexibleCharge automated charging solution, this pilot not only achieved truly cross-brand, cross-model, and publicly accessible commercial operation, but also served over 1,300 users, 1,200 charging sessions, and 100+ vehicle models—establishing the industry’s first high-usage single-unit commercial case. The results mark a milestone: robotic automatic charging technology is now ready for large-scale market deployment.Notably, the pilot coincided with the official release of the ‘Three-Year Doubling Action Plan (2025–2027) for EV Charging Infrastructure Service Capacity’ by China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and related ministries. The policy aims to double the number and capacity of public charging facilities within three years and accelerate the construction of intelligent and connected energy-supplement systems—creating both a policy tailwind and market momentum for next-generation automated charging technologies.I. High Success Rate and User Satisfaction Across 100 Models and 1,000+ VehiclesThe pilot was open to the public without restrictions, serving over 100 different brands and models of vehicles—including private cars, fleet vehicles, and taxis. With nearly 1,300 users and 1,200 total sessions, it represents the most complex and highest-volume single-unit commercial deployment in the industry to date, far surpassing earlier demonstrations that were either manually assisted, limited to single brands, or restricted to closed pilot zones.Despite challenging conditions such as dim lighting, decorative ambient effects, and summer heat within the underground car park, the robot operated stably throughout, achieving nearly 100% success rate and 97% customer satisfaction.This success is underpinned by Wisson’s distinctive FlexibleCharge technology architecture. Based on the world’s first Pliabot(R) Flexible Robotics System, its ‘bionic flexible arm + embodied AI’ configuration enables strong environmental adaptability, wide model compatibility, and disruptive cost advantages. Free from reliance on expensive high-precision sensors, it meets the key commercial demands of safety, seamless user experience, and low-cost operation—making it ideally suited for mass deployment.II. High User Stickiness: Up to Six ‘Re-purchases’ in a Single MonthDuring the pilot, around 30% of targeted local users registered voluntarily for the experience. As popularity surged, many users queued for access, prompting organizers to limit session durations to accommodate growing demand.Beyond showcasing the value and appeal of automated charging, the event also illustrated how sustained public exposure has effectively completed the early-stage user education process. Comments such as ‘I’ve heard about it, but this is my first time actually trying it’, ‘My car brand supports automated charging but hasn’t rolled it out yet’, and ‘It feels like a sci-fi movie come to life’ frequently appeared in user feedback.Among registered users, 52% opted for paid single or multiple experience packages, and 97% reported satisfaction, with 86% saying they were “very satisfied.” Users praised the service for its seamless operation, safety, affordability, and compatibility with diverse vehicle types. Some users even became repeat customers—one particularly loyal driver returned six times in a month, insisting on the robotic service each visit.III. Fourfold Success: Brand, Traffic, Users, and RevenueAs the first case of its kind in the industry, the pilot successfully explored a new model of ‘experience economy + traffic economy’ driven by robotic service innovation. It not only boosted local station orders against the market trend but also proved the commercial viability of robotic charging while breaking through the limitations of traditional site marketing.From a branding perspective, the robot’s deployment created a high-impact social topic and stimulated tens of millions of online impressions through organic UGC (user-generated content) and social discussions. In terms of traffic, users, and revenue, participation by mid- to high-end vehicle owners significantly elevated the station’s image and customer structure, generating incremental income and transaction growth.IV. Policy Tailwinds Accelerate a New Era of Intelligent Energy ReplenishmentLooking ahead, as smart-parking systems expand nationwide and the NDRC’s Three-Year Doubling Plan takes effect—alongside the rapid maturation of high-frequency applications such as Robotaxi and intelligent logistics—automated charging is poised to become a key enabler in the intelligent transportation ecosystem.Leveraging Shoucheng Holdings’ strengths in capital, technological ecosystems, and asset operations, combined with Wisson Technology’s innovation in embodied flexible-intelligence robotics, the two companies are well-positioned to lead the industrialization of robotic charging infrastructure. Together, they aim to accelerate the transformation of frontier technologies into sustainable urban services, empowering the high-quality development of the robotics industry and advancing the integration of smart infrastructure across China’s cities.

Independent U.S. laboratories confirm Phase I battery performance, paving the way for pouch cell and OEM-scale testingOttawa, Ontario--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 22, 2025) - Focus Graphite Inc. (TSXV: FMS) (OTCQB: FCSMF) (FSE: FKC0) ("Focus" or the "Company"), a leading developer of high-grade flake graphite deposits and innovator of next-generation lithium-ion battery technology, is pleased to announce that its Lac Knife graphite anode material has successfully passed Phase I battery validation testing, conducted by both Charge CCCV LLC ("C4V") and American Energy Technologies Company ("AETC"). The concurrent, independent U.S. laboratory test programs confirmed that Lac Knife natural graphite achieved near-theoretical electrochemical capacity (~371 mAh/g), demonstrating high purity, crystallinity, and strong suitability for lithium-ion battery anode applications. The successful completion of these evaluations represents a major milestone toward commercial-scale qualification within C4V's global supply-chain program and future OEM-level validation.The testing was conducted using material refined at AETC under Focus's direction. AETC performed control testing based on its established parameters for Focus's graphite, while C4V carried out independent validation through its proprietary Digital DNA™ ("DDNA") program, which applies industry-standard cell performance benchmarks. Despite minor variations inherent to coin-cell assembly and laboratory calibration, both laboratories confirmed that Focus's Lac Knife material exceeded internal baseline qualification thresholds. Based on these results, C4V has advanced the material to Phase II of its qualification program, which includes pouch-cell fabrication and large-format validation for commercial-scale evaluation. In parallel, Focus plans to explore additional large-format testing initiatives with AETC to further assess scalability and performance consistency.Under identical test conditions, Focus's natural graphite (lot number GN250619002) was compared to C4V's baseline synthetic graphite reference material. The Focus sample achieved a first-cycle discharge capacity of approximately 373 mAh/g-essentially reaching the theoretical maximum for graphite-while exhibiting good stability. Although electrode density and long-cycle performance were modestly lower than the baseline, the material surpassed C4V's qualification benchmarks, confirming its readiness for large-format pouch-cell validation-a more accurate and scalable measure of performance using a semi-automated testing platform that directly correlates with electric-vehicle ("EV") and energy-storage-system ("ESS") cell designs required by original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs").The Company previously demonstrated strong lithium-ion battery performance from its Lac Knife material; however, these independently verified, third-party results now supersede earlier findings and establish a modern, industry-standard baseline that will support future offtake qualification and commercial evaluation."These results validate the quality of our Lac Knife graphite and its suitability for next-generation anode production," said Dean Hanisch, CEO of Focus Graphite. "Having both AETC and C4V confirm the material's strong performance gives us confidence as we move into pouch cell testing - the next step toward commercial readiness.""C4V is pleased to see Focus Graphite's Lac Knife material successfully complete our Phase 1 validation process under our DDNA program," said Baasit Ali, VP Supply Chain at C4V. "The material has demonstrated strong electrochemical validation and purity characteristics that align well with our high-performance anode requirements. We look forward to advancing into pouch cell fabrication and validation, which will provide a clearer picture of its scalability for EV and ESS applications."Next StepsFabrication and testing of pouch cells using Focus's Lac Knife graphite by C4VLong-term cycling and safety validation under C4V's DDNA qualification programSubsequent scaling to large-format cell testing with industry partners for commercial qualificationFocus Graphite's continued collaboration with C4V and AETC underscores its commitment to establishing a North American supply of high-performance, ESG-compliant graphite anode material, supporting the energy transition and critical minerals independence objectives shared by both Canada and its allies. The Company will continue to prioritize dual-use battery initiatives serving both civilian and defense-sector applications.About Charge CCCV LLC (C4V™).
