Charging not only does not cost money but also "earns money"? Electric vehicles become "charging treasures" to earn the difference for car owners

Sanxiang Metropolis Daily, January 7 (All-media reporter Hu Rui) New energy vehicles will no longer be just a means of transportation, but also a large "charging treasure", and in the charging and discharging for car owners to "earn the electricity price difference"... On January 7, the reporter learned from the annual meeting of the Hunan Charging Infrastructure Association that through the relevant technical support and orderly charging mode, the future electric vehicles can be charged at the trough of electricity prices and discharged at the peak of the electricity price, which not only helps the power grid to cut the peak and fill the valley, but also earns the price difference between the valley and the peak for the car owner.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Provincial Energy Bureau, in 2022, Hunan will accelerate the construction of charging facilities such as high-speed and remote areas to further clear the charging obstacles to the development of new energy vehicles.

Highlights: Electric vehicles "earn" the difference in charging and discharging

"Through the new V2G technology, the grid can realize the power supply to electric vehicles, and electric vehicles can also return electricity to the grid." On January 7, at the annual meeting of the Hunan Charging Infrastructure Association, Li Yue, technical director of state grid smart energy transportation technology innovation (Suzhou) Co., Ltd., introduced that this means that electric vehicles will not only be a means of transportation, but also a large "charging treasure", and according to actual needs to achieve charging and discharging, electricity, "so that not only can participate in power grid peak regulation, frequency regulation, but also for car owners to 'earn money'." ”

"Promoting the two-way and efficient interaction between electric vehicles and the power grid will help the power grid cut peaks and fill valleys, and also allow electric vehicle owners to obtain economic benefits." In September 2021, Xin Baoan, chairman of the State Grid Co., Ltd., proposed at the "Third World New Energy Vehicle Conference (WNEVC 2021)" that the State Grid will promote the improvement of peak-peak-valley electricity prices and create a good market environment for electric vehicles to participate in the integration and development of vehicle networks.

It is estimated that by 2025, the adjustable load of electric vehicle charging in China will reach 30 million kilowatts, accounting for 2% of electricity consumption, and energy storage resources are expected to exceed 150 billion kWh. "Trough charging, peak discharge", electric vehicles can promote the consumption of new energy and improve the overall efficiency of new energy systems.

Hunan: Accelerate the construction of charging piles in high-speed and remote areas

The past year can be described as a bumper harvest year for new energy vehicles. In 2021, bydir, GAC Eian, Xiaopeng, Weilai, Ideal and other car companies of new energy vehicles have achieved rapid growth, although the total sales data of new energy vehicles in the country has not yet been released, but according to the analysis of many industry insiders, the data will reach 3.4 million vehicles, achieving a year-on-year increase of 1.6 times.

However, under the hot new energy vehicles in the country, as a supporting facility for new energy vehicles, the construction of charging facilities still faces many challenges. On January 7, the relevant person in charge of the Provincial Energy Bureau introduced in an interview that in 2022, Hunan will accelerate the construction of charging facilities such as high-speed and remote areas to further clear the charging obstacles to the development of new energy vehicles.

Link: Charging piles are difficult to enter residential areas

"At present, the difficulty of charging piles entering residential areas is a big problem." At the annual meeting of the Hunan Charging Infrastructure Association on January 7, the technical director of the State Grid Intelligent Energy Transportation Technology Innovation (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. proposed that at present, most of the communities in China have not considered the construction of charging piles in the early stage of planning, which has many restrictions on the installation of charging piles for owners, and the phenomenon of "a property certificate 'difficult' for owners to build piles" is frequently staged.

"Because it is too difficult to install charging piles in the community, many customers who want to buy electric vehicles have dismissed the idea of buying." The sales staff of a new energy automobile company in Changsha complained. He believes that if the problem of installing charging piles in residential areas is solved, more people will buy new energy vehicles, so that the new energy vehicle market will also usher in more rapid growth.
