[CNMO Tech News] On June 10, CNMO Tech learned from NIO official that the Singapore electric vehicle charging and battery swapping standards "Singapore Standard SS 722", in which NIO deeply participated in research and formulation, was officially released recently. It is reported that NIO is one of the core leading units for this Singapore battery swapping technical standard update and participated in the standard improvement work. After the release of this standard, it means that the battery swapping model has made new progress at the international standardization level, and also shows that Chinese enterprises' experience in battery swapping technology and operational practices is further entering the overseas standard system.
Compared with the previous version, "Singapore Standard SS 722" adds content from "Electric vehicles charging system – Part 4: Battery swapping and mobile charging system", establishing battery swapping and mobile charging technical specifications for electric passenger cars and heavy-duty trucks for the first time. This means that Singapore has further included battery swapping and mobile charging scenarios in the electric vehicle energy replenishment standard, providing a standard basis for relevant facility construction, technology application, and industry collaboration.
NIO stated that the company has long attached importance to the standard system construction. In the battery swapping field, it has already led and participated in the formulation and revision of more than 50 national standards, industry standards, and group standards, and participated in the formulation of 4 IEC standards, continuously promoting the construction of the battery swapping industry standard system.
Data shows, as of June 10, NIO has applied for more than 1650 global battery swapping patents, built 8960 charging and swapping stations nationwide, including 3904 swapping stations, 5056 charging stations and 29089 charging piles, cumulatively completing more than 110 million battery swapping services.
