Mobile WebSiteWith the support of the policy, the replacement mode of new energy vehicles that has been silent for more than ten years has re-entered the public eye.
When the government work report this year mentioned the "new infrastructure", the "building of charging piles" was expanded to "adding charging piles, replacement power stations and other facilities." As an important part of the "new infrastructure", the construction of substation replacement stations was included in the government work report for the first time.
In recent years, my country's new energy vehicles have developed rapidly. Up to now, my country has promoted more than 4.5 million new energy vehicles, accounting for more than 50% of the world's total; accumulated 38,000 charging stations, 449 swap stations, and 1.3 million charging piles of various types.
But at the same time, problems such as the high cost of the vehicle and the inconvenience of charging are still prominent.
At present, there are three main energy supplement methods for new energy vehicles: slow charging, fast charging, and battery replacement. Compared with the other two modes, the biggest advantage of the battery swap mode is that it is faster.
With the advancement of technology, the decline of overall costs and the emergence of new operating models, the industry believes that the power exchange model not only enriches the energy supplement methods for new energy vehicles, but also promotes the development of the new energy vehicle industry to be more mature.
It needs to be emphasized that there is no conflict between power exchange and charging. Energy supplement is not a one or two multiple choice question. Different application scenarios and different actual use requirements correspond to different energy supplement systems. Power exchange and charging should essentially be a differentiated choice for market segments, rather than a confrontation within the energy supplement system.
Compared with the profitability of the operating model, the inconsistent battery standards are a bigger obstacle to the large-scale promotion of the battery swap model. Different companies have different battery standards, and it is difficult to use them universally. If this problem is not solved, it will be difficult for the power exchange model to develop on a large scale.
The development of the new model has not been successful overnight, and the battery swap model still has a long way to go. However, with the support of policies, technological progress and the unification of standards, it is believed that the power exchange operation model will become more mature. Give it some time, the future is still promising.
