However, due to the low efficiency of ev charging pile operation, it will increase the financial pressure of the government for a long time, which is not conducive to the large-scale development of ev charging pile industry.
Case: Charging stations for Beijing Olympic Games and Shanghai World Expo.

Features: An enterprise-led mode with government participation and support, operating a centralized station of AC and DC charging piles for electric vehicles in a mixed manner.
