Shell has opened its largest electric vehicle (EV) charging station globally in Shenzhen, China. The charging station is located about 2.5 kilometers from the Shenzhen Airport Terminal and features 258 public fast-charging points.
The Shell Recharge Shenzhen Airport EV Station served more than 3,300 EVs every day during its trial operation. In addition to e-mobility services, the station offers Shell Select convenience retailing, Shell Café, vending machines, and a drivers lounge.
“The opening of this new site is part of our ongoing commitment to meet the evolving needs of our customers in China. We know that EV drivers are looking for a charging experience that is fast, convenient and comfortable and this is reflected in the utilisation rates of our sites in China, which are two to three times the local industry average,” stated István Kapitány, Global Executive Vice President for Mobility at Shell.
Moreover, solar panels have been installed at the station’s rooftop that could generate about 300,000 kilowatt-hour of renewable electricity per year, which will be used to charge customers’ vehicles.
“China is one of the most important growth markets for Shell Mobility. We look forward to offering pleasant mobility experiences to more customers in China in the future,” added Kapitány.
The site is operated by Shenzhen Shell and BYD Electric Vehicle Investment Company Limited, a joint venture between Shell and BYD.
