Suzhou plans to build 200,000 charging stations by 2025, driving the electric vehicle industry to an output value of about 80 billion yuan

On June 5, the Office of the People's Government of Suzhou issued the "Suzhou 14th Five-Year Plan for Public Charging and Swapping Facilities for Electric Vehicles". The overall goal is to build 200,000 charging piles and no less than 155,000 private charging piles by 2025, including about 36,000 public charging piles and about 9,000 dedicated charging piles, to meet the charging and swapping needs of about 380,000 electric vehicles, and the city's car-to-pile ratio will reach about 2:1. It is expected that the investment in the construction of charging and swapping facilities will be about 6 billion yuan, driving the output value of the electric vehicle industry to about 80 billion yuan and the output value of the power battery industry to about 30 billion yuan.

Key tasks

1. Establish and improve a charging and battery swapping infrastructure system.

According to the planning scheme, orderly promote the construction of charging and swapping service network. During the planning period, in accordance with the order of building a framework, focusing on key points, and strengthening details, the charging and swapping facilities in Suzhou will be put on the map to form an infrastructure "network" that matches the characteristics of population distribution and vehicle travel, so as to achieve "charging piles follow the car and convenient charging", and eliminate the charging range anxiety of electric vehicle users. Give full play to the advantages of the diverse forms of charging and swapping facilities, and reasonably configure new charging and swapping facilities such as multi-station integrated charging stations, "photovoltaic storage and charging" integrated charging stations, and charging and swapping comprehensive service stations according to local conditions, so as to help build a new urban infrastructure system that is intensive, efficient, green and intelligent.

(2) Improve the comprehensive security capabilities of supporting power grids.

Conduct an analysis of the impact of the development of charging and swapping facilities on the power grid, and propose the needs for supporting power grid construction. Incorporate the construction and renovation of supporting power grids for charging infrastructure into the special plan for distribution networks, coordinate with other relevant plans, provide support in terms of land use guarantee and corridor access, and truly achieve "facility construction, power grid first". According to the needs of various types of buildings for the construction of charging infrastructure, reasonably improve the design standards for electricity use of various types of buildings, and strengthen the formulation and revision of relevant standards and specifications.

(3) Strengthen the innovation and application of key technologies for charging and swapping.

Promote the application of new charging equipment such as flexible interactive DC chargers and V2G DC chargers in planned sites, strengthen the innovation of key technologies such as electric vehicle charging and discharging operation control platform and pile group collaborative control, and solve the problem of electric vehicle charging. New charging piles should have intelligent and orderly charging service functions. Promote the research progress in the fields of charging infrastructure and distributed renewable energy (including power battery energy storage and cascade utilization), two-way interaction with the power grid, integrated development with intelligent transportation, and charging system safety based on big data, improve the efficiency and safety of the charging system, and reduce the impact on the power grid.

(IV) Improve the municipal charging and swapping facility management platform.

By improving the data access and governance of the government supervision platform for charging facilities, the utilization rate of charging and swapping facilities will be further improved, the subsidy management and safe operation supervision of charging facilities will be strengthened, the platform functions and performance will be optimized and improved, the application value of big data of charging facilities will be deeply analyzed and explored, the operation of subsidized charging facilities will be tracked and monitored, and the promotion and application effect of charging facilities will be analyzed and evaluated. Scientific guidance will be provided for optimizing the layout planning of charging facilities, improving subsidy policies and supervision methods, and formulating industrial development plans, so as to comprehensively enhance the supervision service capabilities of charging facilities.

(V) Accelerate the construction of charging and swapping facilities in key areas.

Give full play to the leading and exemplary role of party and government organs, public institutions, enterprises and institutions, and make full use of site resources to build charging facilities. Build public charging facilities and battery replacement facilities mainly for fast charging in commercial and other public service places, public parking lots, highway service areas, gas stations and available sites with parking conditions. Build charging and battery replacement facilities serving specific models or specific fields of vehicles in urban transportation nodes, logistics parks, port terminals, bus stations and other areas.

Implement the "Guiding Opinions on the Construction and Management of Charging Infrastructure for Self-use Electric Vehicles in Residential Communities in Suzhou (Trial)" and improve the construction and management model of charging facilities in existing residential communities and newly built residential areas. According to different types of parking spaces, build public charging facilities ("public piles") for all owners in public areas, and build private charging facilities ("private piles") for individual residents in fixed parking spaces. Innovate the business model of charging services in residential communities, carry out the "unified construction and operation" model of charging piles in residential communities, and encourage the promotion of new charging service models such as "sharing adjacent parking spaces", "multiple vehicles on one pile", and "rail-type shared charging robots".

(6) Optimize the operation and management mechanism of charging and swapping facilities.

Optimize the management of dedicated charging parking spaces, and standardize and guide fuel vehicles not to occupy dedicated charging parking spaces. In electric vehicle charging stations with manual assisted charging, staff should manage the parking environment in the charging station to prevent fuel vehicles from occupying charging parking spaces and affecting normal charging activities. In "unmanned" self-service charging electric vehicle charging stations, new technologies such as intelligence and integrated charging and parking are used to solve the problem of non-charging vehicles and completed charging vehicles occupying charging parking spaces. Charging stations need to be equipped with dedicated personnel for inspection. If a fuel vehicle occupies a dedicated charging parking space, the owner should be informed to leave immediately. If necessary, the parking lot property (operation) unit should be informed to deal with it in accordance with relevant requirements.
