As new energy vehicles become more and more popular in life, the supporting charging piles have gradually entered people's field of vision. As of now, the number of charging piles nationwide has reached 3 million, but many people do not understand the classification of charging piles. Today, let’s talk about charging piles.

As we all know, charging piles are defined as equipment for charging new energy vehicles. They can be understood as "power banks" for electric vehicles , and are generally divided into two categories: private charging piles and public charging piles. Private charging piles are purchased by car owners and installed in their own parking spaces and are not used by others; public charging piles are large outdoor paid charging pile clusters operated by companies or institutions, also called charging stations. Most of them are for It is an operational new energy vehicle.

charging pile model

charging pile models are mainly classified into two types, namely wall-mounted and vertical charging piles. Wall-mounted charging piles are mostly used for personal installation and use. They are placed in residential parking spaces or garages, one charging pile at a time.

Vertical charging piles are similar to gas dispensers in gas stations and are mainly used in outdoor venues such as service areas and urban areas. Generally, the charging power of vertical charging piles will be stronger than that of wall-mounted charging piles, and the charging time will be shorter to meet the needs of commercial vehicles.

Charging pile types

For charging piles, they are divided into DC charging piles and AC charging piles. AC charging piles have lower power, which is often called slow charging, and are generally suitable for private charging piles. DC charging piles, also known as fast charging, have higher power and shorter charging time, and are the first choice for operating vehicles.

At present, AC charging piles for private use have problems such as difficulty in installation and slow charging. After many new energy car owners purchase the charging piles that come with their cars, they cannot install them in their own parking spaces due to parking spaces, property issues, etc. The situations involved are also relatively complex. Complex and low usage. In some new communities, due to the proportion of charging parking spaces, several charging piles have been randomly installed and cannot be used at all.

DC charging piles are mostly operated by companies and institutions and are deployed at various charging stations in the city to charge electric vehicles. However, there are also many problems with existing public charging piles, such as unreasonable layout, low utilization rate due to large-scale deployment in the early stage, and many bad piles and "zombie piles" that cannot be used. These are all problems faced by major operators. problem.

Charging pile market

Speaking of the charging pile market, it should have shown a vibrant side like new energy vehicles, but it is not so satisfactory due to various problems. The charging pile industry belongs to one of the seven major sectors of "new infrastructure", and the same artificial intelligence , big data, etc. have long become "popular fried chicken" industries.

For operators, a single profit model relying on only service fees is always a drop in the bucket, and how to improve value-added services is the primary problem faced by enterprises. Taking Xiangfu Kuaixiang Charge in Anhui area as an example, relying on Xiangfu Petrochemical Group, we are actively deploying the Anhui market, improving supporting facilities, and striving to gain a place in the Anhui area.

Upstream equipment manufacturers are also in full bloom. Not only are there traditional equipment manufacturers, but Internet companies are also entering. Huawei and Xiaomi are typical representatives of new forces, followed closely by Gree. The participation of cross-border manufacturers such as electrical appliances and Midea.

Summary

As the number of new energy vehicles increases year by year, the demand for charging piles will also continue to increase.The importance of charging piles to new energy vehicles is self-evident. In the future, charging piles will continue to increase with the growth of new energy vehicle sales. Charging pile service providers will also provide the public with smart and fast charging pile services to meet the needs of many new energy vehicles. Energy car owners’ demand for charging piles.
