The first charging complex in Suqian, Jiangsu, has been successfully put into operation

Recently, at the intersection of Ping'an Avenue and Weishanhu Road in Suqian, Jiangsu, the first charging complex in Suqian, the Weishanhu Road Charging Complex, built by State Grid Suqian Power Supply Company, was successfully put into operation. Over ten electric vehicles are entering the charging area orderly to experience the brand-new experience brought by the intelligent charging service facilities.

The complex spans an area of approximately 2,580 square meters and is equipped with facilities such as photovoltaic panels, energy storage systems, charging stations, supercharging stations, V2G stations, and charging service stations. In addition to conventional power sources, the charging complex also adopts a mutual aid mode that combines rooftop photovoltaics with energy storage cabinets. The daily average power generation of photovoltaics is around 400 kWh, and the 232 kWh energy storage cabinet can achieve daily two charging and two discharging cycles, as well as three charging and three discharging cycles during summer peak hours. Both systems can maximize the storage and consumption of photovoltaic power generation through intelligent algorithms. After the external power supply of the micro grid is interrupted, the off-grid operation function of the energy storage equipment, along with photovoltaic power generation and mobile energy storage vehicles, can ensure short-term emergency power supply for the entire station load.

"In addition to regular charging stations, we also offer liquid-cooled supercharging stations and V2G charging and discharging stations. The liquid-cooled supercharging stations can achieve a range of 300 kilometers in just five minutes, while the V2G charging stations enable bidirectional charging and discharging. These stations are not only provide charging services but also allow the energy stored in the vehicle's battery to be fed back into the power grid, facilitating vehicle-grid interaction. Car owners can charge their vehicles during off-peak hours and discharge the energy during peak hours, thereby earning profits," explained Zhu Hongji, an employee of State Grid Suqian Power Supply Company.

It is understood that after the operation of the entire station, it is expected to consume approximately 140,000 kWh of "green electricity" annually, which is equivalent to saving 39 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 104 tons per year. As the National Day holiday approaches, the operation of this charging complex will further optimize the layout of charging stations in Suqian city, providing a more convenient charging experience for local residents and tourists.
