“In the future, Shell will make great efforts to invest in electric vehicle charging stations, especially in Asia.” Recently, Shell CEO Vael? Wael Sawan said in an interview with the American Consumer News and Business Channel (CNBC).
Vael? Sawan said: “The penetration rate of electric vehicle users in China is very high, and the market demand for charging piles is booming. We found that the number of our electric vehicle charging customers is twice that of internal combustion engine customers. Shell has 46,000 gas stations worldwide, and we can fully Charging stations are located at gas stations.”
Focus on China’s charging pile market
In addition to Shell’s high-profile announcement of “sharing the cake”, other internationally renowned oil companies are also working quietly and beginning to develop the Chinese charging pile market.
Among international oil companies, Total Energy has the most diversified global low-carbon business layout. Total Energy’s investments in China involve natural gas, solar energy, energy storage, lubricants, gas stations, charging piles, car services and other fields.
In the field of charging piles, at the end of 2021, China Three Gorges Group and Total Energy established the “Three Gorges Total Energy Charging Company” in Wuhan, Hubei. An Songlan, President of Total Energy (China), said that by 2025, the company will Hubei Province has installed and operated more than 11,000 high-power charging piles.
In March this year, the chairman of China Three Gorges Corporation held a discussion with Pan Yanlei, chairman and CEO of Total Energy. Pan Yanlei made it clear that he hoped that both parties would continue to cooperate in the electric vehicle charging business.
British Petroleum (BP) has always been at the forefront in expanding its new energy business, and its charging pile layout has not fallen behind.
Electrification is the core of bp’s business in the mobile travel field, and it has been laid out many years ago. It has successively invested in related companies such as Chargemaster, the UK’s largest electric vehicle charging company, StoreDot, an Israeli ultra-fast charging battery company, and Freewire Technologies, a mobile charging company. In addition, bp has also invested in Weilai Capital USD Fund and Chinese start-up PowerShare Technology. In recent years, investment results have gradually emerged.
BP says it will have more than 100,000 public charging points installed globally by 2030.
An era of competition may be around the corner.
