An integrated PV-storage-charging-inspection-battery swap project undergoes trial operations in a parking lot in Changzhou, East China's Jiangsu Province, on January 23, 2026. The station's core is an electric microgrid that combines photovoltaics, energy storage, charging, battery swapping and battery inspection, effectively addressing pain points such as uneven distribution of charging infrastructure and heavy grid load pressure.
