There are many problems in the operation and maintenance of charging piles.

Invisibly to new energy vehicles.

The "last mile" journey has put obstacles in its way.

Recently. China Consumer Daily" reporter in Fujian Province.

Survey of the charging infrastructure in residential areas.

It is difficult to realize the "charging freedom" of the old community

It is reported that at present, many residential communities are limited by factors such as installation requirements, fire safety, and power distribution capacity, and cannot install charging piles. Especially in the old residential areas of many cities, the power supply pipelines are laid for a long time, the equipment is seriously aged, and the electric capacity design is low, and the reserved power is not taken into account in the planning.

Tianyi Garden Community and Old Rice Warehouse CommunityFrom December 16th to December 19th, the reporter investigated the old communities around Dongbai Center in Gulou District, Fuzhou City and found that the Tianyi Garden Community and the Old Micang Community at the intersection of Beida Road and Guxi Road in Fuzhou City have been merged together, with a total of more than 20 buildings and more than 200 ground parking spaces in the two communities. However, the reporter did not see a single car charging pile in these two communities. The property manager of the community told reporters that there is no underground garage in the community, and the ground parking spaces are basically publicly owned, and individuals cannot apply. The administrator said that because there are too many problems involved in the unified construction of car charging piles on the ground, including the consent of the owners, the construction of power grids, and the operation and management of charging piles, the property company has no consideration of building car charging piles at all.

Lianhu Garden

There are 3 buildings and 224 residents in Lianhu Garden on Marshal Road in Fuzhou City, and there are only ground parking spaces in the community, and there are no car charging piles. The property manager of Lianhu Garden told reporters that the community could not build car charging piles, because there were only 3 new energy vehicles in the community, and it was impossible to build car charging piles for these 3 vehicles.

Parking near the old neighborhood

In order to understand the car charging situation near the old community, the reporter also visited several parking lots near the provincial government road. The parking lot of the Provincial Industrial Communications Compound located at No. 1 Provincial Government Road in Fuzhou City has hundreds of parking spaces, but there is not a single car charging pile. Mr. Chen, the manager of the parking lot, told reporters that the parking lot is mainly for the internal units of the compound, and the remaining parking spaces are used for external services, and there is no plan to build car charging piles.

The Marshal Temple parking lot has not been built for a long time, there are more than 100 parking spaces, and there are no car charging piles. Ms. Liu, the manager of the parking lot, told reporters that there are often nearby car owners who inquire about whether there are car charging piles, and considering the needs of car owners, they will reflect the situation to the higher authorities.

The reporter then visited again.

Wohu Xinwan near Guxi Road.

Tonghu New Village and other communities.

All were told that there were no car charging stations.

Mr. Lin, the owner of the new energy vehicle, told reporters that the community where he lives is not allowed to build charging piles at all, and charging is basically "guerrilla", which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also faces high commercial electricity bills. If you can install a home charging pile, charge at any time, and enjoy the trough electricity price, this is the biggest benefit of the promotion of new energy vehicles.

Why does the property company refuse to enter the personal charging pile into the community?

On December 15, Ms. You, a staff member of the power supply business hall of Gulou District, Fuzhou City, State Grid, said in an interview with reporters that residents have a set of standardized processes for installing low-voltage personal car charging piles. However, Ms. You stressed that there must be proof of the property company's permission for construction, and a sample of the supporting materials "Certificate of Parking Space and Permitted Construction" must be provided.

Data map

The reporter's investigation found that the service department of the property company often refuses to install charging piles for the owners in the community on the grounds that the community construction plan does not include charging piles and there are potential safety hazards, which causes more and more disputes. Disputes over charging piles in many communities often occur in the process of proving materials of property companies.

The property company believes that the community does not plan and design the power connection port of the charging pile and reserve the power distribution capacity of the charging pile, and the installation of a large number of charging piles may affect the normal power supply of the communityThe installation of charging piles requires road breaking and crossing the bridge, which involves the reconstruction and reconstruction of buildings and their ancillary facilities, and requires the consent of all owners according to the "Property Law" and "Property Management Regulations". After the installation of new energy vehicle charging piles, it is difficult to divide the safety, management and supervision responsibilities in the process of use. The addition of charging piles in the concentrated area of the basement parking space requires the written consent of the owner of the adjacent parking space.

In late August, the owner of Xiangrong Lishuwan Community, Licheng District, Putian City, Fujian Province, left a message to the mayor on the online platform complaining that the property company of the community did not cooperate with the owners who had individual parking spaces to apply for the construction of car charging piles, and refused to issue certification materials allowing the installation of charging piles on the grounds that the capacitance of the community was insufficient and the power department had to agree first. In this regard, the Urban Management Bureau of Licheng District, Putian City, conducted an investigation, inquired about the current regulatory documents, and consulted a lawyer's opinion, and finally replied to the ownerThe relevant regulatory documents do not clearly state that the property is the property that issues a written opinion for the owner to install a new energy charging pileCorporate Lawobligations. In view of the existing relevant regulatory documents, the Licheng District Urban Management Bureau is unable to compel the property management company to issue a written opinion. For the property management company's refusal to issue a written opinion, the relevant laws and regulations do not have corresponding measures. Therefore, it is recommended that the claimant resolve the matter through legal proceedings.

The reporter's inquiry found that in recent years, Fujian Province has caused a lot of lawsuits due to the property company's failure to issue parking spaces and construction permits. There are two main reasons why the property management company does not issue a certificate:

One is that the property management company does not have the right to decide whether the construction can be carried out

The other type is the community's own problems, such as concerns about insufficient electric capacity, objections from other owners, and potential safety hazards such as fire protection.

The person in charge of a property management company in Fuzhou told reporters that the installation of charging piles is a personal matter on the surface, but in fact, it is related to the overall interests of the community, and it is difficult for the property company to balance in the middle. Once the property company "opens the opening", the charging piles in the community will "bloom everywhere". In this way,The community will not only face the pressure of power distribution, higher safety management costs, but also once the charging pile causes fire and other safety accidents, the property company alsoIt is necessary to assume the corresponding safety responsibilitiesTherefore, individual property management companies rejected the application.

According to the "pile" problem, all parties need to work together

The reporter learned that in order to solve the problem of charging new energy vehicles in the community, in recent years, the first departments at all levels have issued relevant documents to encourage, support and guide owners and property companies to install and build electric vehicle charging piles.

In 2016, Fujian Province issued the "Interim Measures for the Construction and Operation Management of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure".It is clarified that if an individual installs charging facilities in a parking space with its own property rights in a residential area or a fixed parking space with a lease period of more than 1 year with the consent of the owner of the parking space, it shall first register with the property service enterprise, and then submit an application for installation to the regional power grid operator, and the property shall support and cooperate;There is no need to apply for construction land planning permits, construction project planning permits and construction permits.

In 2021, Fuzhou City issued the "Notice on Further Promoting the Construction of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure".It is clear that in the upgrading and renovation of old communities, charging piles will be listed as supporting facilities.

At the end of October this year, the General Office of Fuzhou City formulated and issued the "Implementation Opinions on Further Building a High-quality Charging Infrastructure System" in accordance with the "Guiding Opinions of the General Office on Further Building a High-quality Charging Infrastructure System" (Guo Ban Fa 2023 No. 19).It is clearly proposed to actively promote the construction of charging infrastructure in residential areas, accelerate the promotion of charging infrastructure for fixed parking spaces in existing residential areas, and ensure that 100% of the charging infrastructure or reserved installation conditions for fixed parking spaces should be built according to the regulations, and no less than 20% of charging facilities should be built for non-fixed property parking spaces. At the same time, the "Fuzhou Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Construction Approval Guide" was issued, which clearly stipulates that the construction of self-use charging infrastructure does not need to be filed with the department.

Presently. All parts of Fujian Province are actively promoting.

Construction of charging infrastructure in residential areas.

Data mapIndustry insiders pointed out that in order to solve the problem of installing charging piles in the community, it is necessary for all relevant departments to speed up the introduction of unified regulations, clarify the construction management process, clarify the specific installation process, clarify the regulatory responsibilities of all parties, and clarify the attribution of safety responsibilities.

In the old residential areas where conditions permit, make full use of idle vacant land and set up special charging areas for new energy vehiclesIn the community that does not have the conditions for installing charging facilities, public charging facilities can be added within a reasonable distance around the community. When promoting the transformation of old communities, the charging piles of new energy vehicles will be included in the scope of transformation to meet the operational needs of charging infrastructure.
