A few days ago, the executive meeting of the Guangzhou Municipal Government deliberated and adopted the "Guangzhou Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Safety Management Measures". In view of the problems of aging equipment, lack of maintenance, and prominent safety hazards such as the aging of some charging facilities and equipment, and the operation with diseases, the responsibilities and supervision methods of safety supervision have been further clarified.
As of the end of November, the number of pure electric vehicles in the city has exceeded 286,000. At the same time, the number of charging facilities in Guangzhou has surged, and as of the end of November, the number of public and private charging piles in the city reached 65,200 units.
The Measures point out that where the owner of a public or private charging facility entrusts the operation of the public or private charging facility to a third party (including but not limited to an operating enterprise or property management enterprise), it must sign a safety production management agreement. Charging facility owners and operating enterprises (legal person units, groups) should strengthen the management of charging vehicles, and strictly prohibit the occupants in the car during charging; they must ensure that the equipment such as power distribution, charging, monitoring, fire protection, and lightning protection are intact to ensure that the charging facilities are in a normal state; and the waste charging facilities that cannot provide charging services should be cleaned up in a timely manner.
Public and private charging facility operating enterprises (legal person units, groups) shall carry out weekly safety inspections of charging facilities, and the weekly inspection records shall be kept for at least one annual cycle; the safety self-inspection of charging facilities shall be carried out every month, and the monthly safety self-inspection report shall be kept for at least two annual cycles.
In addition, public and private charging facilities construction or operation enterprises to establish a complete charging monitoring and video security monitoring system. The charging monitoring system must have data storage and management functions, and must also realize the monitoring of the operation of charging facilities and the charging process, and alarm should be carried out when abnormal conditions that endanger charging safety (such as abnormal insulation monitoring, battery temperature is too high, voltage is too high, current is too large, etc.). Enterprises (legal person units, groups) that construct or operate public and special charging facilities shall promptly carry out power outages and inspections of charging equipment.
For public and private charging facility operating enterprises (legal person units, groups) that fail to correctly perform the safety work duties of these Measures, the district government to which they belong and the relevant competent departments are to conduct warning reminders, meet and talk with their relevant responsible persons, and supervise the implementation of rectification responsibilities. For public and private charging facility operators (legal person units, groups) that have hidden dangers of major accidents or have not carried out rectification within the prescribed time limit, the district governments shall make a decision to stop using the charging facilities involved. For those who refuse to implement the decision to stop using, each district government may notify the relevant units to stop power supply to the charging facility station involved and force them to perform the decision.
