At present, the number of electric two wheelers in China has reached nearly 300 million. At the same time, frequent fire accidents caused by indoor charging have seriously threatened the personal safety of residents and consumers in the community. Since the second half of 2021, several cities including Beijing and Shanghai have introduced local regulations to further restrict the charging of
Electric Bicycles in hallways and indoors. However, the ban on indoor charging in the community only avoids the hidden dangers of indoor charging, and where to charge has become a problem. Building outdoor centralized charging facilities is a comprehensive solution.
Taking Beijing as an example, six departments including the Municipal Fire Rescue Brigade, Municipal Planning and Natural Resources Commission, Municipal Housing and Urban Rural Development Commission, Municipal Urban Management Commission, Municipal Urban Management Comprehensive Administrative Law Enforcement Bureau, and State Grid Beijing Electric Power Company jointly issued the "Notice on Clarifying the Relevant Work of Centralized Charging Facilities Construction for Electric Bicycles ", focusing on solving bottleneck problems such as slow construction progress, difficulty in expanding power supply, and high electricity prices for centralized charging facilities for
Electric City Bike and
Electric Mountain Bike , vigorously improving the coverage of facilities and the utilization rate of residents, effectively preventing and resolving the risk and harm of Ebike fires at the source. At the same time, a special team for the construction of centralized charging facilities for
Electric Bicycle was established under the leadership of the Municipal Urban Management Commission.
