Electric vehicle charging facility standards introduced in October

With the implementation of various policies for new energy vehicles, the standards for various technologies for electric vehicles have also been finalized. Recently, media reports said that in October this year, the country will formally introduce three technical standards for electric vehicle charging facilities, including "Technical Conditions for Non-vehicle Conductive Chargers for Electric Vehicles," "Technical Conditions for AC Charging of Electric Vehicles," and " Non-vehicle charger monitoring unit for electric vehicles and battery management system communication protocol. The other five items are also under development. However, the technical standards for electric vehicles have not yet been released. Competition for energy giants such as State Grid, China Southern Power Grid, and Sinopec has long been “white-hot”, and they have accelerated the pace of technological upgrading, relying on their respective channels to build an electric vehicle charging network and seizing the layout of future markets.

The three technical standards are about to issue standards for electric car charging facilities that are expected to be officially released in October, including "Technical Conditions for Non-vehicle Conductive Chargers for Electric Vehicles," "Technical Conditions for AC Charging of Electric Vehicles," and "In-vehicle Chargers for Electric Vehicles." Three items of communication protocol between the monitoring unit and the battery management system. The other five technical standards, the relevant departments are organizing grid companies, oil production companies and other aspects of intense discussions. It is reported that these standards relate to the basic composition, functional requirements, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, and logos of supporting measures such as electric vehicles. Analysts pointed out that once the above three standards are officially released, all domestic charging stations must be constructed in accordance with the unified standards.

At the time of the news, at the performance briefing held in Hong Kong on August 23, Su Shulin, chairman of Sinopec, stated that he would develop the electric vehicle charging business through the existing gas station network and it will Existing gas station renovation. This also means that Sinopec, which has just entered the "Central Enterprise Electric Vehicle Industry Alliance," officially entered the electric vehicle charging network. At present, Sinopec Beijing Petroleum Branch Company and Beijing First Branch Group Co., Ltd., which are subsidiaries of Sinopec Group, have jointly funded the establishment of Beijing Sinopec Secco New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., mainly to transform existing refueling and filling stations into fueling and charging comprehensive service stations.

Rely on their own channels of "contention"

However, before Sinopec announced that it would develop its electric vehicle charging business through its own network, the two giants of the State Grid and China Southern Power Grid had already set off and set off a surge of new charging stations throughout the country. Behind this, it is a huge market space in the future. According to the new energy vehicle industry planning draft that was exposed, China’s energy vehicle ownership will reach 5 million by 2020, and annual hybrid vehicle sales will exceed 15 million. The relevant research data shows that when the number of electric vehicles increased to 200 million in 2030, the annual energy consumption was 800 billion kilowatt-hours.

At present, the State Grid Corporation of China has established electric vehicle charging stations in Chengdu, Beijing, Shanghai and Xi'an. According to its plan, this year it will set up charging stations in 27 cities nationwide. In Shandong Province alone, the State Grid has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with 17 local governments to build 9 charging stations and 500 AC charging stations.

Another giant, China Southern Power Grid, is not willing to lag behind, but also stepping on the pace of policy to speed up the layout. After charging stations in Shenzhen and Guangzhou have been put into use one after another. Recently, a strategic cooperation framework agreement was signed with the Liuzhou Municipal Government on promoting the development of new energy vehicles industry and accelerating the construction of electric vehicle charging facilities. A charging station will be built in Liuzhou pilot project during the year and plans to build 100 demonstrations in qualified communities or parking lots. Charging pile.
