Tesla has no progress in cooperating with State grid: Push destination charge

Following the Yintai Center and Wangjing Soho, Tesla is working to push for a destination charging program in the Chinese market, which is to provide a free charging service for Tesla owners in a public parking lot. Wu Bixiang, general manager of Tesla China, told Tencent technology that there are mainly home charging piles, super charging stations and destination charging projects. The first is mainly in residential areas, by the owner of the electric vehicle, Tesla is free to help install; the second is the inter-city charging station, mainly by Tesla himself, now Tesla Beijing and Shanghai have also built 3 super charge piles; The third destination is mainly for Tesla owners to work, During the leisure time for the car charging considerations, mainly placed in public places in the car park. Wu Bixiang has never been more open and enthusiastic about the way in which it was charged, even though she didn't set the goal of the project: how much to build and how much to build. However, according to Tencent Science and technology, in the Super charging station investment construction time is longer, and the State Grid has not yet substantive cooperation, the thrust of the destination charging is currently the solution Tesla owner charge problem of expediency. Multi-charge mode Tesla is exploring multiple Tesla electric charging methods, and June 11 and June 13, Tesla and Beijing Yintai Center and Wangjing Soho announced cooperation to launch the destination charging project. The current progress is: Yintai Center said in Beijing, Hangzhou and other national Yintai commercial real estate and department stores set up more than 40 Tesla dedicated rechargeable parking spaces, providing free charge. Pan Shiyi, the chairman of Soho China, said that after the Wangjing Soho construction of the charging pile, Soho is now built and the unfinished project will be fully cooperated with Tesla. At present, Beijing Yintai Center has 2 charge piles. Wangjing Soho has more than 9 underground parking lots located in three towers. The main mode of cooperation between the two parties is that the charging sites are provided by partners and the facilities are provided by Tesla. The cost of maintenance and charging of each charge parking space is about 10,000 yuan per year-20,000 yuan. At present, the owner charge is free, said Pan Shiyi, the future will be charged, when the charges need to be further measured. The charging time of the destination charging project is between the super charging station and the household charge pile. Super Charging station every 20 minutes of electricity, can travel 200-300 kilometers, household charge pile is relatively slow, fully filled with almost a night of time. Destination charging is one hours per filling point, can travel 100 kilometers, full full of 5 hours, which can meet the owner of the city between the departure and destination between the charge demand. No real progress in cooperation with the State Grid Wu Bixiang did not respond positively when asked about the progress of Tesla's cooperation with the National Grid. She stressed that in addition to the destination charging project, there are also super charging project plans in China, but the details need to be explored. According to Tencent Science and technology, Tesla and the state grid in the construction of super charging station there are obvious differences. One reason is that the national Grid wants to unify the expressway intercity fast-charge network to complement all standard electric vehicles on highwaysElectricity, last month, the National Grid launched the 2014-year expressway intercity fast-charging network construction project, the tender scale of 332 sets of fast-charging pile. Tesla is more inclined to build its own super charging station, mainly using solar energy as a driving force. In the United States on the highway, every 250 kilometers around the construction of a relatively perfect network of super charging station, in China has not yet started between intercity super charging station construction. Another reason is that Tesla insists that the charging interface is its own standard, which is different from the standard set by the State grid. The State power grid construction can only be charged for all electric vehicles in line with China standards, BYD E6, North Steam E150 and other domestic models in line with the National Grid standards. The state Grid insists that electric cars should implement China's standards in order to facilitate the general use of power-and-electricity facilities, avoiding duplication of construction and inconsistent standards. However, the two sides insist that there is some loosening of the possibility, specific performance in: May 28, the State Grid will open to social capital of distributed power grid engineering and electric vehicle recharge facilities two market areas, which means that private investment has the possibility to participate in the charging network. In addition, the State grid is revising the charging standards, Wu Bixiang in last week's cooperation ceremony with the Yintai center revealed that if the revised version of the standard and European standards, compatibility will be better.
