From Construction Planning to Operation for Heavy Truck Charging Station (No. 5 of the serialized articles)
07 New Energy Heavy Truck Related Policies
By the second half of 2023, many governments, not only the central government, but also the local governments, have been busy issuing a series of new rules and measures to support the heavy truck (that is, large truck) industry. For example, a pilot project has been implemented to reduce carbon footprint and improve the environment; efforts are made to enable more people to afford and use cars; in addition, special attention is paid to the charging places for EVs, so that these large trucks can be conveniently charged or battery swapped. With all those measures converged, the heavy truck industry around the world is like riding a rocket and developing very fast.
Hey, let's talk about a particularly significant environmental protection plan, which is like a "carbon emission reduction challenge" launched globally. This plan says that 100 cities and industrial parks that are representative and can set good examples around the world should be selected to try to minimize carbon emissions to achieve carbon peak. It is specifically emphasized that we must quickly make passenger vehicle cars and freight trucks more environmentally friendly, use less fossil fuels prone to environmental pollution, and increasingly adopt new energy vehicles, that is, cars that do not need to be refueled, and run on electricity or other clean energy. By taking these initiatives, the environment of our entire planet be enhanced!
By the first half of 2024, governments around the world, be it big or small, have issued incentive measures for boosting the truck industry. For example, these trucks have been given priority to drive on certain roads so that they don’t get stuck in traffic jams; consumers are subsidized when buying or upgrading their cars; discounts are even offered on highway tolls. In brief, various means of incentives have been offered by governments to foster the better and more eco-friendly development of this industry.
An international environmental protection organization has initiated a large-scale scheme aimed at making our planet greener and more habitable over the next few years. It has set a very ambitious goal: by 2027, almost half of the newly purchased cars, 45% in specific, must be new energy vehicles. Moreover, those ageing gas-guzzling vehicles will be phased out progressively and no longer permitted to run the roads for environmental protection. This is really a far-reaching plan that demands the coordinated efforts of each and every one of us!
Another prominent international environmental protection organization has unveiled an action plan spanning from 2024 to 2025. The main point of this plan lies in enhancing the environmental friendliness of the transportation sector by resorting to less polluting energy sources. It emphasizes the urgent need to replace ageing vehicles promptly and stop them from running on roads to decrease pollution. Additionally, efforts should be directed towards making new trucks and commercial vehicles more energy-efficient, reducing their reliance on fuel.
It's worth noting that governments worldwide have introduced a series of favorable policies. Coupled by the year-end promotional activities launched by car manufacturers, these initiatives have spurred greater enthusiasm among consumers for purchasing trucks, which is leads to faster renewal of long-serving trucks and promoting sustainable transportation. As a result, the demand for charging piles for charging trucks has also increased remarkably. In the future, there will be more and more charging piles, and the places to charge will become more and more convenient.

Building a heavy truck charging station is not an easy task. You need to consider many things: careful planning in advance and the location; convenience of charging for heavy truck drivers; investment and operation of all the necessary facilities. Only in this way will it be able to provide stable and seamless charging services to heavy trucks, guaranteeing their smooth operation and contributing to the sustainable development of the transportation industry..
In the construction process of heavy-duty truck charging stations, every link is crucial, from the importance of the early stage to the specific construction process and cost considerations. First of all, the construction of heavy-duty truck charging stations is of great significance to promoting the development of heavy-duty trucks, promoting the green transformation of the transportation industry, and achieving the goal of "carbon neutrality". Secondly, understanding the definition and classification of heavy-duty truck charging piles can better select suitable equipment for the construction of charging stations. In terms of layout, combining heavy-duty truck operation scenarios and route planning, selecting according to site conditions, grid access conditions and reserving development space can ensure the efficient operation of charging stations. In the construction process, project planning, market research, land leasing and other links all require careful preparation. At the same time, reasonable control of construction costs is also key, including consideration of costs such as charging piles, transformers, low voltage, site rental, filing acceptance, and supporting facilities.
Frankly speaking, when constructing heavy truck charging stations, we must consider a wide array of scenarios and continuously optimize the construction manners. This will ensure that large trucks can charge with convenience, in turn promoting the more environmentally friendly and sustainable development of the transportation industry in the long run.
