In the rapidly evolving landscape of electromobility, the industry is moving away from a "one-size-fits-all" charging approach toward highly specialized, scenario-based solutions. While ultra-fast charging dominates highway corridors, the urban commercial environment demands a more nuanced strategy. Our 20kW Low-Power DC Charging solution is designed not just as a power source, but as a strategic asset for commercial operators-balancing infrastructure constraints with the growing need for reliable, medium-speed destination charging.

Industry Background: The Shift to Destination Charging

Destination charging-located at shopping malls, office complexes, and hotels-is becoming a critical pillar of the EV ecosystem. Unlike traditional gas stations, EVs stay parked for 2–4 hours at these locations, creating a unique opportunity for "slow-fast" DC charging that balances cost-efficiency with user experience.

 

 

Industry Pain Points: The Dilemma of Commercial Charging

Commercial property owners and charging operators often face three major challenges:

 

Infrastructure Constraints: Many older commercial buildings have limited power capacity. Installing high-power 120kW+ DC fast chargers requires expensive transformer upgrades and complex grid approval.

 

Cost-Efficiency Mismatch: AC chargers (7kW) are often too slow for mall shoppers, failing to provide a meaningful range boost during a typical visit. Conversely, ultra-fast DC chargers are underutilized in long-dwell scenarios, leading to a poor Return on Investment (ROI).

 

Revenue Stagnation: Many operators struggle to move beyond simple "electricity reselling." There is a lack of synergy between charging services and the core retail business.

Our Solution: The 20kW "Smart Integration" Case
 

In this featured operation case, we deployed a network of 20kW Low-Power DC Chargers equipped with Dual-Gun Dynamic Power Allocation. This specific project demonstrates how the 20kW solution bridges the gap between AC slow charging and high-power DC fast charging.

"Asset-Light" Deployment & Grid Compatibility

By utilizing 20kW modules, the project avoided massive grid infrastructure upgrades. The dual-gun system intelligently distributes 20kW across two vehicles, perfectly matching the available power capacity of the underground parking lot while providing faster speeds than standard AC chargers.

Precise Customer Matching

The charging speed is calibrated to the average mall stay of 3 hours. A 3-hour session can replenish approximately 200-300 km of range, ensuring customers leave with a full battery without the "charge and move" urgency of ultra-fast stations.

Cross-Industry Value Creation

We implemented a "Charging + Consumption" model. By integrating the charging platform with the mall's membership system, we extended the average customer dwell time by 1.5 hours. Data shows a significant uptick in secondary spending in dining and entertainment, transforming the charging pile from a utility into a traffic-driving asset.

Remote Intelligent Management

Our cloud-based platform enables 24/7 remote monitoring, automated fault diagnosis, and flexible revenue-sharing settlements, reducing on-site maintenance costs by 40%.
