[EV Trucks: First 8 provincial electric heavy-duty truck charging demo stations open in Jining]
The first batch of eight provincial-level electric heavy-duty truck charging demonstration stations in Jining, Shandong has been completed and put into trial operation. Located along busy freight corridors and near industrial parks, the stations are equipped with high-power truck chargers plus PV and energy storage facilities, serving trunk logistics and short-haul mining transport. The Qufu North station offers up to 800kW per charging gun and 5-minute battery swapping, while the Sishui station debuts a 2.5MW medium-voltage direct-connected charger, the first application of its kind in Shandong, helping meet fast-charging demand from large electric truck fleets and easing range anxiety.
