Standards amid steady governance
Zhaoyuan is setting standards as safety governance stays in the spotlight. Written patrol, repair and accident duties, together with product sampling and liability insurance, are becoming the local baseline for compliant charging. GB 46519-2025, China's first mandatory energy-efficiency standard for charging infrastructure, released 5 October 2025, is planned to take effect 1 November 2026, applying to AC and DC supply equipment and non-compliant devices.
Why clear responsibility is the foundation
Writing site ownership, power duty, inspection frequency, incident handling and fee settlement before construction prevents the costliest later disputes. Many stalled projects fail exactly at this step, so it must be done properly. Properties can fold peak-valley tips into community education and add public piles to daily safety patrols. Older communities can pilot unified build-manage to resolve application difficulty and clarify safety responsibility.
Service and assurance
Dongshang New Energy covers all thirteen Yantai districts and county-level cities with local teams and visitable sites, so users know exactly who to reach, and small service radii answer the test of fast repair. Who fixes a broken pile? Check the posted O&M number or in-app repair entry. A compliant operator publishes its channel and time limit; if unattended, report to the property or local authority.
