Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 39 039 Power on! Start charging!
As the lines were connected, Lin Zhe directly transferred ten of the fourteen power teams over.

The remaining four power teams are responsible for handling the follow-up maintenance services in the previous six towns, and the rest are preparing to prepare for opening up the county market.

The first thing they are responsible for is to set up the circuits and power up at least two charging stations in the east and center of the county.

In addition, Zhetong Power's transmission lines are set up in advance in various streets and communities, so that subsequent users do not have to wait too long to get power after opening an account with Zhetong Power.

The number of cables consumed by Zhetong Electric Power this time is also huge, after all, a power supply network needs to be built throughout the city.

Fortunately, the cable company was cooperative with such a large shipment volume and could pay half of the deposit first, and the subsequent cable fees would be paid two months later.

This condition was negotiated face-to-face with the cable supplier by someone Lin Zhe arranged for.

Cable companies are also happy to accept such business.

After all, I can’t bear to give up an order with such a large shipment volume, and half of the deposit is enough sincerity.

Moreover, the electricity market is not like other markets, where the monk can run away but the temple cannot. The risk was small so they approved it.

……

Two days later, the same driver from last time drove past the cluster of units in the east of the city.

During this period, every time he passed by here and Lincheng Hotel, he would always look at the charging piles on the roadside.

I just thought that one day when electricity is available, I would be the first to try it out.

However, apart from seeing people from the power company when they were installing the charging piles, I never saw them again after that.

Gradually, he became somewhat discouraged and would not get out of the car to look at anything he passed by, but would just glance at it from a distance.

But today, after looking over there, my brother was stunned for a moment, then he turned the steering wheel and stopped at the parking space of the charging station.

Just now he noticed that the lights on all the charging piles in this row were green compared to before. Does this mean that they are powered and can be used?
After the car stopped, the handbrake was pulled, and he got out and walked closer, the brother saw the QR code and the words "normal use" lit up on the screen of the charging pile.

“It works!”

As he said that, the eldest brother quickly opened his mobile phone to scan the QR code. Although the car still had half of the power, he had to try it first.

Click to register, and then the normal price and the discounted price will pop up on the screen.

The normal price is 0.89 yuan per kilowatt-hour for charging stations because it is now the peak period during the day.

The preferential price is 0.76 yuan per kilowatt-hour, which is cents cheaper.

Don't underestimate this 3 cents. A full charge of your car can generate more than 50 kilowatt-hours of electricity, which means you can save 7 or 8 yuan at a preferential price, which is enough for a bowl of noodles.

Sometimes he has to charge his phone twice a day, which adds up to hundreds of dollars saved in a month.

For professional drivers like them, any hesitation for even a second is a sign of disrespect for their profession and a lack of calculation ability.

Quickly click to select the preferential price. It requires registration and opening of a Zhetong Electricity account, and a deposit of 100 yuan for electricity bills must be made in advance.

This was specially set up by Lin Zhe to prevent some people from buying tickets at a preferential price and opening an account but delaying the use of Zhetong Power Supply.

The driver didn't care about these things. It was all the same anyway. He just had to pay a hundred yuan for electricity in advance.

After the online payment, the electric gun on the charging pile is unlocked with a crisp ticking sound.

My eldest brother also excitedly connected the car and waited for charging.

"Brothers, look where this is? The charging station is powered on, I'm using it..."

Not long after the video was posted, several taxis with green license plates arrived. "Lao Liu? How is your car? My car is running low on battery and I was thinking of going home to charge it. I came here as soon as I saw your message."

"How's the price? It can't be more expensive than at home, right?"

After hearing these questions, the driver also spoke.

"The prices are about the same, and if you subscribe to Zhetong Electric Power and deposit 100 yuan in advance, you can save 1.3 cents. I don't know how it works, I've only been here less than half an hour."

Just as the eldest brother finished speaking, his car automatically flashed its double lights a few times.

After seeing this scene, the eldest brother widened his eyes.

"Fuck! It's charged so quickly?"

His car has a function that when in charging mode, the light will automatically flash to remind you and then automatically shut down the system inside the car when the battery is fully charged. This is to prevent the system from being turned on when no one is next to the car.

After noticing this scene, several new drivers nearby were obviously surprised.

Old Liu just said that he has only been here half an hour, it’s impossible that the battery is already charged, right?
"Is that true? Is it true that the battery in your car is almost full?"

Without paying any attention to what he said, Lao Liu got into the car and checked the big screen without even lighting the cigarette that he had just put in his mouth. The big screen clearly showed that the battery was almost full and was entering the slow charging state.

"That's awesome! It's really full in half an hour!"

Although his car was already half charged, it would take more than 50 minutes or nearly an hour to charge this half of power at home.

It only takes half an hour to charge at Zhetong Electric's charging station, and this is when his car does not have a fast charging system.

If this car is equipped with fast charging, it would take more than half an hour to charge from zero to 80 percent, right?

Seeing Lao Liu’s expression which didn’t seem like an act, several other drivers quickly scanned the QR code to start charging!
Soon, after they shared the news of the opening of the charging station and its usage results in the group chat, a large number of new energy vehicles rushed over.

Because the largest charging station in the west of the city has not yet been put into use, and many people still have power in their cars today and want to try out the "fast charging" feeling, so the charging piles at the two charging stations that have just been put into use by Zhetong Power have become crowded with people queuing up to charge.

But this is fast enough. Many people can charge it in just twenty minutes or half an hour.

Even those with large capacity and not much power storage can be fully charged in more than half an hour, so you don’t have to wait too long in line.

Now all the new energy vehicle owners in Lincheng were excited. This solved a big problem for them.

……

On the other side, new users are constantly adding to the back-end computers of the Lincheng Zhetong Power Business Hall.

Basically, all of them are brought by these new energy vehicle drivers, especially taxi and online car-hailing drivers, who are heavy users of charging piles.

In order to enjoy the preferential prices, we decided to use Zhetong Electricity to supply electricity to our home.

The contact information and addresses they left were recorded one by one in the background, and the staff quickly called back one by one to tell them approximately how long it would take for the power team to come and connect the electricity.

At present, the number of these new users exceeds 300 households a day, which is still very impressive.

And it is foreseeable that as this matter slowly ferments.

Next, not only taxi and online car-hailing drivers, but also all new energy vehicle owners in Lincheng who heard the news would go to the charging station to charge their vehicles in order to get cheaper electricity than at home, and then open an account with Zhetong Power.

By then, the number of users will soar, and the first step in opening up the market will be accomplished.
