Why it is discussed now
Bus depot charging is discussed now because policy rhythm, technical maturity and market acceptance have recently converged, and depots make a natural early proving ground for heavier loads.
Where the value is heading
In Qixia we avoid rolling out all at once. Sample first, smooth the process, then widen; this protects both schedule and reputation, because a depot outage affects far more riders than a single stall.
From one case to a system
Verify with small steps before promoting. Turning individual cases into a mechanism is the line that separates a one-off from a system, and depots reward discipline with steady, predictable uptime.
Depots serve on a schedule that brooks no excuse. In Qixia we plan for the busy hour, not the empty one, because a depot charger that fails at peak lets down an entire route of passengers at once. Reliability there is a public obligation, and we treat the early morning pull-out as the moment the whole day depends on.
