What is the application process for new energy vehicle charging piles?
2 Answers
Obtain approval from the residential property management and obtain a written consent letter for installation. Submit an application through the State Grid online app for home charging pile installation. Contact the car dealership (4S store) to arrange for the installation of the charging pile.
After buying an electric vehicle last year, I personally went through the charging pile application process, which was quite smooth overall. First, I had to contact my residential property management, providing proof of parking space and identity information. After review, the property management stamped their approval for installation. Then, I went to the local power company's official website or service center to submit an application, filling out forms to apply for a new electric meter. This required bringing the contract and property management approval, and the approval process was generally completed within a week. Before installing the charging pile, I had to choose a brand and service provider. I selected one with a good reputation and scheduled an on-site visit. The electrician completed the installation in half a day, and after debugging, the charging test worked normally. The entire process took just over two weeks and cost more than 3,000 yuan, but I applied for a government new energy subsidy and got some of it back. Now, charging every night is worry-free and affordable. I recommend new car owners to check the process while navigating.
