Electric vehicles are a convenient means of transportation, as long as there is a power supply where you can replenish energy, in the community is also equipped with charging piles, but why do some car owners like to pull the line to charge? Is there anything wrong with the charging pile? Let's talk about the power consumption of electric vehicles once charged, after listening to some car owners bluntly said: What a huge profit!
How much can businesses earn when electric vehicles are charged in the community?
It can also be seen that charging in the community charging pile does cost more money than charging at home, and as a charging pile business, deliberately extend the charging time and increase profits, up to 5 times the profit, it is indeed "huge profit".
And under the account calculated by the owner, many netizens also said that the charging pile in their community uses the owner's shared electricity bill, so that the owner is equivalent to paying the fee twice, and the business and the property are "winning".
How much power does an electric car consume to fully charge?
The formula for calculating power consumption is as follows: output voltage× output current× full charge time = power consumption.
Let's take the main two types of models, the 48-volt model representing the electric bicycle and the 60-volt model representing the electric motorcycle, equipped with a 20AH capacity battery, to see their power consumption.
48 volts of the new national standard model, its output voltage is generally 56V, the output current is generally 2.1A, it takes 8 hours to be fully charged after discharge, for example, through calculation, it takes about 0.94 kWh to be full.
The output voltage of the 60-volt electric motorcycle model is generally 72V, the output current is generally 2.5A, and the discharge is calculated in 8 hours, and the result is about 1.44 kWh.
Through the above calculations, the 48-volt model is probably less than 1 kWh full of electric energy, and the 60-volt model is less than 1.5 kWh of electric energy full, according to the normal electricity price charge 0.55 kWh of electricity, the normal cost is about 0.5 yuan, about 0.8 yuan.
The charging pile is greasy
According to the calculation of 20 charging ports in a charging pile, a community is equivalent to charging at least more than 200 electric vehicles every day. However, many people charge at night and ride away in the morning, which will cause a problem, that is, although the charging interface can be charged 24 hours a day, the utilization rate of the charging pile can eventually reach about 50%.
If calculated according to the utilization rate of 50% and the consumption of 7.5 hours per charge, the monthly revenue of a community with 10 charging piles can reach about 5,006, of which 3,060 are net profits. A community earns 3,060 a month, 43,000 a year, and if you find a few more communities, it is not a problem to make a net profit of hundreds of thousands a year.
However, charging piles also have costs, such as charging pile costs, installation costs, and entry costs handed over to residential properties, etc., but if the usage rate is too low, then the payback cycle may take four or five months.
In such a situation, some businesses will use some "tips" if they want to quickly return to their costs, such as charging prices, which were originally charged for four hours for one dollar, and now charged for three hours for one dollar, but the current power has not increased. In this way, the monthly revenue can reach more than 7,000, the net income is more than 5,000, and the net income is more than 60,000 a year. Or it is not a price increase but a "limiting" method, which can be filled with an electric car for more than seven hours, and now it may take eight or nine hours to fill an electric car, so that the monthly revenue is more than 6,000, which seems to be less, but it can also make a net profit of nearly 5,000 a month, and a net profit of 60,000 a year.
Do you also often charge at the charging shed? Is there a better way to solve the problem, welcome to discuss!
