| China public charging infrastructure | 2.727 million public charging points at the end of 2023 | Indicates a large domestic operating base and mature supply chain for charging equipment. | China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance, 2023 year-end statistics |
| Public charger annual growth | Approximately 51.7% year-on-year growth in 2023 | Strong infrastructure expansion supports broader production capacity and component availability. | China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance, 2023 statistics |
| Public AC charging points | Approximately 1.838 million units at the end of 2023 | AC equipment is suitable for workplaces, residential areas, hotels and long-dwell locations. | China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance, 2023 year-end statistics |
| Public DC charging points | Approximately 889,000 units at the end of 2023 | Demonstrates substantial domestic demand for rapid-charging and high-power applications. | China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance, 2023 year-end statistics |
| Common rapid-charger power classes | 60 kW, 120 kW, 160 kW, 180 kW, 240 kW and 360 kW configurations are widely used in commercial projects | Power should be matched with site capacity, traffic volume, vehicle mix and targeted charging time. | Common commercial DC charging configurations used in China and international markets |
| Typical DC output-voltage range | Approximately 200–1,000 V DC, depending on model and vehicle application | A wide voltage range improves compatibility with passenger cars, buses and commercial vehicles. | Typical specifications for modern liquid-cooled and air-cooled DC charging systems |
| Main international connector requirement | CCS2 is widely required in Europe, Australia and many other export markets; regional alternatives may apply | Connector selection must comply with the destination market and the target vehicle population. | Regional charging standards and market regulations |
| Communication protocol | OCPP 1.6J remains widely deployed; OCPP 2.0.1 is preferred for new networked installations | Open protocols reduce dependence on a single backend platform and simplify roaming or software integration. | Open Charge Alliance OCPP specifications |
| Ingress protection target | IP54 is common for protected installations; IP55 or higher is often requested for exposed outdoor sites | Higher protection helps equipment withstand rain, dust and outdoor operating conditions. | IEC 60529 classification and project-specific specifications |
| Operating temperature requirement | Typical commercial specifications cover approximately −20°C to +50°C; cold-climate projects may require wider ranges | The selected range should reflect the installation climate, altitude and cooling method. | Common manufacturer specification ranges for outdoor DC chargers |
| Efficiency target | High-efficiency DC power modules commonly specify at least 95% efficiency; exact performance varies by load | Higher efficiency reduces electricity losses, operating costs and thermal stress. | Typical technical requirements for modular DC charging systems |
| Export compliance documents | Common requirements include CE for the European Economic Area, UKCA for Great Britain, and applicable local electrical approvals | Documentation affects customs clearance, installation approval, insurance and market access. | Destination-market conformity and electrical safety regulations |
| Recommended factory-audit checkpoints | Quality system, electrical safety testing, burn-in testing, traceability, spare-parts support and after-sales response time | These checks help verify repeatable production quality rather than relying only on catalogue specifications. | Standard international procurement due-diligence practice |
