THE first large electric car charging station in east China's Shandong Province, capable of charging 45 cars at a time, is being built in Linyi City, as part of a program to promote the development of new-energy vehicles.
The project, costing 23 million yuan (US$3.37 million), would be finished by May, said Li Guohua, deputy director of the sales department of Shandong Electric Power Corp, which is developing the station.
Shandong is one of China's biggest auto producing provinces and has been developing electric cars since 2004. The province has more than 30 electric car producers, and is aiming at an annual production capacity of 300,000 vehicles by 2015.
"How we charge the electric cars is the key to the industry's success. Whether the green cars can enter China's mainstream market depends on a nationwide charging network that we are building," said Li.
China is the world's largest electric car producer and market, said Li. "Many other cities, including Shanghai, Shenzhen and Wuhan, have built electric car charging stations."
Developing and popularizing the zero-emission cars was one of the best ways to curb China's growing fuel demand and to reduce air pollution, said Yang Yusheng, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
"Building an electric charging network is the key to popularizing electric cars in China," said Yang.
The State Grid Corp said 75 electric car charging stations are planned in 27 cities by the year end.
