According to the data of the National Big Data Alliance for New Energy Vehicles, by the end of the first quarter of 2024, the number of new energy vehicles in the country reached 22.5 million, of which Shanghai ranked first in the world with 1.288 million. In the first quarter of this year, the number of new energy minibuses registered in Shanghai accounted for 44.49%, highlighting the rapid growth of new energy vehicles in the city. Data from the Shanghai municipal platform show that since 2016, the number of public and special charging piles connected has reached 207,900, and the actual operation is 137,600. Although there is a huge potential for the construction of public fast charging facilities, the accompanying challenges cannot be ignored.
Adhering to the concept of sustainable development, ABB Electric Mobility has established a new concept charging station “Powered by ABB” to provide users with a stable, safe and green charging experience. On May 24, 2024, the Powered by ABB Beidi Road Supercharging Station was officially put into use, showing ABB’s determination to provide users with a new charging experience.

Powered by ABB Beizhai Road Supercharging Station is located near Hongqiao Hub and National Convention and Exhibition Center, with superior geographical location and convenient transportation to meet users’ needs for convenient travel. ABB Electric Mobility has equipped the demonstration station with 122 charging terminals, including 120kW fast charging terminals and 480kW liquid cooled supercharging terminals, to adapt to different models and user needs, truly achieving a one-kilometer charging experience per second. At the same time, the station is also equipped with Jieneng Smart electric large double-bin power station. The entire charging station can provide services for more than 20,000 new energy vehicles per month, which greatly promotes the convenience of the use of surrounding new energy vehicles.
ABB electric transportation ultra-fast charging equipment is highly adaptable, compatible with up to 99% of the electric models on the market, achieving up to 99% of the success rate of a gun insertion, greatly reducing the user’s operation difficulty and waiting time, but also improving the operational efficiency of the terminal assets. At the same time, in terms of safety, our charging equipment follows a strict and high standard certification guarantee system, and can provide users with double protection charging process through ABB electrical equipment protection and more than 30 multi-dimensional sensing networks.
XV9738A-HEIE450617R1 To enhance the user experience, ABB Electric Mobility has introduced a lightweight gun wire that reduces the weight by 50% compared to the traditional gun wire while ensuring high current transmission, thus improving the ease and comfort of charging. In the supporting services, the intelligent lane gate system is specially set up to ensure the effective use of the charging position and avoid the occurrence of the fuel vehicle occupying the space. The charging station is also equipped with a large monitoring screen that displays the charging status of all vehicles in real time, and can notify the owner of the full charge of the vehicle through voice, greatly improving the user experience.
In addition, the Powered by ABB Beidi Road Supercharger station has set up a lounge for car owners, providing amenities such as meals, drinks and charging electronic devices. In order to cope with possible medical emergencies and ensure the safety of users, the lounge is also equipped with first aid kits.
