State Grid decentralized Tesla charging station is difficult to achieve

The State Grid Corporation of China (hereinafter referred to as the State Grid) released all of its facilities during the two sessions, which is a major measure after monopolizing the construction of electric vehicle charging and replacing facilities for five years. Allow social capital to compete with the State Grid in this area. This is undoubtedly a great news for Tesla who has been planning to build a super charging station in China.

All-round liberalization means that anyone can build, we can provide good electricity service, and the problems that Tesla was concerned about won't get the State Grid will no longer exist. The responsible person of the State Grid said in an interview with reporters. However, he also pointed out that because Tesla's charging system is different from the domestic one, whether the charging station can be successfully landed also faces policy requirements such as technical standards.

In 2013, Tesla was like a storm that swept the world and landed in China at the end of the year. According to the 2013 annual financial report released by Tesla, the total delivery of Tesla Motors in 2013 was 22,500 vehicles, and it is expected that the vehicle delivery will exceed 35,000 vehicles in 2014. According to the plan of its CEO, Musk, China will become Tesla’s second largest market in the world.

To achieve this goal, the charging problem is undoubtedly the first to be solved. The question most frequently asked by customers is charging. As long as the customer has a separate parking space, Tesla will install a charging connector on the door. At present, the first batch of car owners in Beijing to prepare the car have installed the above charging connector in the community. Tesla company Liu told reporters.

However, it is worth noting that at present, Tesla public charging facilities are only two places, the Beijing Fang Grass Test Shop and the Golden Port Customer Service Station. This reporter learned that since the end of February this year, Tesla has been in close contact with the relevant departments of the State Grid to discuss the construction of charging stations, but has not reached an agreement.

During the two sessions of the National People's Congress, everything seemed to turn around. Liu Zhenya, chairman of the State Grid, stated that the charging and replacement facilities for electric vehicles will be 'open to the public' in the society. Whoever has the money, who wants to invest, who will vote.

The super charging station is now under construction in China, but the specific location cannot be disclosed. It is certain that it will soon be popularized in China. There are hundreds of plans for the future, and they must be spread all over the country. Mr. Liu introduced. However, another Tesla employee told reporters that Tesla’s super charging station is solar-powered in the United States. China is currently talking about this project and has not really started construction yet, so it’s not known exactly what form it is in. Power generation.

Regardless of whether or not the super charging station has been built, it goes without saying that there are still many obstacles that need to be cleared up for it to be truly operational. The first is the technical problem. Tesla is not the same as the country in terms of charging system. It is not necessary to build charging stations according to their own standards. It also depends on how the government sets the standard after the market is released. The responsible person of the above-mentioned State Grid explained.

In addition, real-world issues such as land use planning, investment in infrastructure construction, and power grid construction planning also need to be clearly defined by the government. Even if social capital is to be liberalized and large-scale charging stations are constructed, it may still require the strict approval of multiple departments, just like the construction of gas stations. Moreover, the advantages of the State Grid in this area have not been weakened. Tesla wants to build a charging network more quickly. Cooperation with the State Grid is still essential.
