  More and more electric vehicles are flooding the road, it's heartening to see more public AC charging stations also popping up on the roadside: Type 1 chargers with a cable attached, Type 2 chargers with a cable attached, and BYO charging stations with no cable attached. As time passes, large numbers of chargers with a cable attached have their plugs dropped or even damaged, making them unable to work. Operators' maintenance costs and pressure are increasing， so more operators choose to invest in BYO chargers in shopping centers or public car parks. Bring Your Own(BYO) charger means that car owners must bring their charging cable.   By reducing cable investment and maintenance costs, operators can have more resources to invest in the construction of new stations, thereby increasing the distribution density of public chargers. This could greatly increase the desire to buy electric vehicles among apartment owners who don't have independent garages.   Not having attached cables can reduce the risk of damage and theft of the charger, improve the reliability and safety of the charger to a certain extent, and enhance the confidence of car consumers.   For car owners, having their charging cables means that the connector can perfectly match the vehicle inlet, and they no longer need to worry about the adaptability issues of public cables. More convenience, no more worrying about whether the public cables are working. Although there may still be a mismatch for multi-vehicle owners,  it still improves the charging experience. From an environmental perspective, similar to bringing your shopping bags， bringing your charging cables is also a way to reduce electronic waste.   Workersbee, always committed to future green transportation solutions, has completely upgraded our EV charging cables from appearance design to structural performance. The product is compatible with almost all public chargers and various mainstream electric vehicles on the market.     The well-designed and stylish plug is covered with soft rubber, allowing customers to hold it comfortably in any season. Equipped with a removable dust cover, it is easy to open and close. Enhance the waterproof/snowproof design to protect the terminals well and prevent moisture from affecting the work. The terminal itself also adopts a rubber-covered process to prevent dust and moisture, providing double protection for the safety and stability of charging. These are important for charging in harsh outdoor environments.   The rubber-covered design of the cable tail sleeve is waterproof and anti-bending, and is very durable, extending the service life of the cable. It is a reliable choice for consumers as a BYO cable.   It supports single-phase and three-phase power output, and the maximum charging power goes up to 22kw. It also depends on the onboard charger capability of the vehicle. This means that EVs can add their mileage by 120km per hour, which will be a charging speed that satisfies EV drivers because they do not have to stand still and can go to have dinner, shop, or even watch a movie. The surprise highlight is the upgraded cable management, which comes with a cable clip that can fix the connector on the cable and easily store it with a velcro handle. Place it neatly in the trunk and handle every charging need without panic.   Plug-shell and cable colors are customizable, providing your customers with a variety of options. The product has passed TUV/CE/UKCA certification and is easily stationed in various online stores， ensuring the charging safety of car owners.   For BYO charging stations to play a greater role in the public charging market or even in the goal of promoting EV adoption, we must first increase public awareness and education. Making consumers believe that BYO chargers are more convenient is an effective means to develop sustainable green transportation. Secondly, it is also very important to optimize the interoperability between different charging infrastructures and reduce barriers to use for car owners. The future development of EV charging cables may also need to consider V2X, especially V2V - vehicle-to-vehicle power supply. Workersbee's R&D team is also actively developing such bi-directional power supply charging cables.

  As environmental problems intensify and policy-led sales of electric vehicles skyrocket. As an indispensable source of power, the demand for EV charging market has also shown explosive growth. Governments are making every effort to promote public charging, but it cannot be ignored that for most electric vehicle owners, charging mainly occurs where they live. Home charging is more convenient and less expensive, giving it an unshakable position in the charging market.   Usually, private homeowners choose to install fixed EV chargers in their homes, while EV owners living in apartments opt for shared chargers in apartment parking lots, although in many cases, it is necessary to go with other residents to coordinate charging arrangements and parking occupancy. These chargers are almost AC chargers, available in different options from 3.7kw to 22kw. Today's more common one on the market is still the 7.4kw power output. These products may rely on installation by a professional electrician, require negotiation with local utility companies, and are not cheap. But by charging at home, you can enjoy low electricity bills and avoid the trouble of finding public charging stations.   There is a product whose functions may be underestimated by us, but in fact, many people have realized its benefits. It's the portable EV charger, which some automakers will include in the car purchase package (but usually with a very low capacity). If car owners purchase it themselves, they will find that portable EV chargers also have a wide range of capacity options and are cheaper. No complicated installation is required, as long as your power plug conforms to the electrical environment used. It is convenient enough to be fixed in your garage with a bracket or can be placed in the trunk of your car as a "first aid" when on the go. When car owners need to charge and have the right power source, use the portable EV charger to plug & charge at any time.   But many car owners will complain that its charging speed is too slow, which deepens their range anxiety because the one they have may be a 3.7kw charger. If the “leading role” is replaced by a 22kw three-phase charger, then the perception of "the portable EV chargers charge slowly" will be reversed.     Workersbee's portable EV charger (three-phase) delivers strong power to your customers with reliable performance, lightweight design, and a user-friendly charging experience. Three-phase electricity has greater stability and higher transmission efficiency, less energy loss during charging, and is safer and more reliable. Using a three-phase CEE plug, the charging speed is fast, and the allowed charging power is up to 22kW, which is 2~3 times that of the normal Mode 2 charger. It is believed that owners of electric pickups will love it.   The powerful control box not only ensures safe and stable charging and provides multiple safety protection measures, but also makes charging smarter and more humanized. Car owners can adjust the current with a simple button, plug and charge, or schedule charging according to actual needs.   The charger is equipped with a high-quality charging cable, which is soft and easy to handle, and is also easy to coil and organize. The clear display is highly readable, even in poor lighting conditions. Owners can clearly understand the charging status, such as current, voltage, charging progress, etc. For families with multiple electric vehicles, a reasonable configuration of portable chargers can allow multiple vehicles to enjoy the low cost and convenience of home charging at the same time.   Taking into account outdoor application scenarios, our design is more rugged to guarantee reliable charging even under challenging conditions. It has passed CE certification and deserves more trust from your customers. Three-phase chargers may find wider applications for EV charging in the future due to their higher charging efficiency and faster charging speeds. As the development of clean energy deepens, to lower electricity costs, technological development may require more integration with solar energy and smart grids.   The three-phase portable EV charger plays a surprising role in home charging. It makes charging for EVs more convenient and cost-effective. We believe it will bring a pleasant charging experience to your customers and provide them with more high-quality charging solutions to choose from.

BIG news for the North American electric vehicle industry! In a mission to accelerate the world's sustainable energy transition, last year Tesla announced that they were opening up their proprietary charging connector design, AKA North American Charging Standard (NACS), to the world. As we've seen, the Tesla Connector is only half the size of the Combined Charging System (CCS), but up to twice as powerful to charge. With an integrated AC/DC lightweight slim design with no moving parts, it supports up to 1 megawatt of DC charging. More importantly, Tesla owns 60%+ of the DC charging network in the United States. All the advantages prompted the two North American auto giants, Ford and GM have changed sides. And this wind shift has made the path of change in North American EV charging standards, like the Snowball Effect, develop rapidly. Since May of this year, automakers including Aptera, Rivian, Volvo, Polestar, and others have announced that they have signed agreements with Tesla and are planning to officially join the NACS by adding NACS ports to their new vehicles. The leading charging network and charging equipment manufacturers ABB, Blink, ChargePoint, EVgo, Electrify America, FLO, Tritium， etc. have also announced to provide NACS connector service on their EV charging stations or EV chargers. And on the 27th of last month, SAE officially announced that they will assist Tesla to accelerate the NACS standardization process. NACS may dominate the North American EV charging market, but for the stakeholders, there is no doubt that they have different concerns.   Automakers Competitors who share the electric car market with Tesla are focusing more on its Supercharger network, as it has the largest share of the DC fast charging network in North America. Consumers will always gravitate toward EV manufacturers with larger charging networks and more convenient charging, so improving charging convenience is tantamount to improving brand competitiveness and further expanding market share. On the other hand, the opening of Tesla's Supercharger means that the agreement saves these automakers from the high cost of building their own charging stations.But they are more concerned that interoperability for non-Tesla owners using the Supercharger network can attain highly user-friendly, as well as secure the charging benefits for drivers of their brand. Given the still inadequate EVSE, achieving charging equity for consumers is the key. For automakers planning to adopt NACS ports in future new vehicles, they need to consider the development difficulty and cost of structural changes and ensure that EVs have a design life of a decade or more. How to better integrate with the ID design of their products, and how to design the location of the charging port to make charging more accessible are all considerations that need to be addressed. In the transition phase of charging standards, perhaps an adapter is not optimal (as interoperability is not always effective), but offers more flexibility. Alternatively, having a slower portable electric vehicle Level 2 EV Charger along with the car will work just as well for most drivers.     Charging Equipment Manufacturers For charging equipment manufacturers, choosing NACS connectors undoubtedly means choosing the future. The Tesla connector's up to 1 MW power redundancy design, in a sense, reduces the technical difficulty for manufacturers to develop. After all, the market demand for EV charging is moving toward higher power, more stable current, and faster charging speed. Improving the stability and reliability of the equipment and lowering the average cost of maintenance is exactly what they have to consider if NACS connectors are added. For high-power charging equipment, controlling the temperature of cables, terminals, and components, and considering the combination with liquid-cooled supercharging technology can significantly improve the manufacturer's competitiveness.   Workersbee, as a professional EV Plug Manufacturer, has industry-leading ultrasonic welding technology and connector cooling technology. The EV Charging Plug can make temperature monitoring and voltage and current monitoring to guarantee the stability and charging safety of the equipment. At the end of the gun will be lengthened design to protect the cable, a high anti-drop design, greatly reducing the maintenance cost and the possibility of breakdown. Meanwhile, due to the different charging port positions of non-Tesla vehicles, different models have different cable length requirements, and Workersbee's ODM and OEM services can customize the cable length.     Charging Networks Charging Point Operators are facing up EV owners, and their main concern is to provide drivers with a pleasurable charging experience and thus increase their charging incomes. This means chargers should be highly reliable (high accessibility, stable running), easy to handle (lightweight EV cables, easy to plug and unplug, even for disabilities or women with little strength), as well as have more options (NACS, CCS, CHAdeMO ports) or be able to meet different charging needs ( Level 2 AC charging, low-power or high-power DC fast-charging).     Administration From the government's subsidy standards, high reliability is a MUST requirement. In terms of the new standards for electric vehicle chargers announced by the White House, the equipment is required to achieve 97% uptime to build a convenient, reliable, accessible, and user-friendly charging network for EV drivers. Tesla's NACS Supercharger network meets this requirement, unlike many other devices that often break down and cannot be charged. The administration aims to eliminate drivers' doubts and concerns by building an EV charging market that can gain widespread acceptance and recognition, which will in turn boost EV adoption to achieve the goal of electrifying the country to combat climate change.   Energy Utilities   Pressures on energy supply are increasing by the day. They need to consider load balance and demand response on the grid and achieve reliability and efficiency in energy distribution in different areas, whether urban centers, village suburbs, or low-income areas. They also want to manage and plan for EV charging demand through the standardization of NACS to maximize the balance of grid pressure. Through the efforts of all parties to realize the diversity of renewable energy development (such as solar energy, wind energy, etc.) and reduce carbon emissions. Utilizing the integration of solar energy and charging pile, conforming to the development trend of PV， Energy Storage, and Charging, realizing low-power DC fast charging. Workersbee's R&D team is actively developing NACS low-power DC charging cable products in response to this market demand, with a dedicated project team. Utilities would also like to embrace smart charging management through microgrid-distributed energy management， which schedules and optimizes charging sessions based on tariffs, grid conditions, and renewable energy availability.   EV Drivers The opening of the NACS connector is not always good news for some auto owners. Tesla owners will worry about whether their advantage as Tesla consumers still stands. With Tesla drivers still often facing long and disorganized charging queues and other annoyances, if there are still non-Tesla drivers joining the competition, whether Tesla's future deployment of its Supercharger network can solve their difficulties in finding chargers. And for non-Tesla owners, having access to Tesla's Supercharger network is a delight, whether through an adapter or a direct connector to the NACS charging port of a future new vehicle. Tesla owns more than half of the fast chargers in North America, which means increased charging convenience and high power significantly reduce charging wait time. The great design of the NACS connector also makes it easier to plug and unplug than the bulky CCS connector. In point, they expect to have the same user-friendly charging experience as Tesla drivers who get stable and efficient charging. But no matter which side, EV drivers want to have charging fairness, orderly queues for charging, and less wait time. Workersbee has always been committed to promoting the development of EV charging and striving for the achievement of global climate goals. We always pay attention to industry policy trends and positively respond to them. We have several R&D project teams working in parallel to develop NACS series products, including (but not limited to) NACS connectors, NACS adapters, etc. Contact us to explore how we can help your business capitalize on the NACS opportunity.

Ford and GM have recently announced their plans to install the Tesla North American Charging Standard(NACS) port in their future vehicles. This move is expected to bring more convenience to EV owners, as the NACS EV Connectors allow for faster charging times and easier access to charging stations. American EV automaker Rivian Automotive has also announced that it will be embracing the NACS, originally developed and implemented by rival Tesla.       However, car makers are not the only ones switching to the NACS. Charging station manufacturers ChargePoint Holdings Inc, Blink Charging Co, EVgo Inc, and Wallbox NV have all announced their plans to adopt the NACS in their charging stations. This is a significant development for the EV industry, as the standardization of charging ports will make it easier for EV owners to find compatible chargers and reduce the need for multiple charging adapters.      The adoption of the NACS by multiple car makers and charging station manufacturers is a positive step towards the widespread adoption of EVs. S&P Global Mobility forecasts that electric vehicle sales in the United States could reach 40 percent of total passenger car sales by 2030.As more and more companies embrace this technology, it will become easier for consumers to make the switch to electric vehicles and contribute to a more sustainable future.   The demand for NACS is expected to get a boost from government and policy support. In Texas, the government has taken a significant step by mandating the installation of EV charging stations with the NACS connector. This move is expected to create greater awareness and demand for NACS, and it sets a precedent for other states to follow. California, Michigan, and Iowa are currently conducting a review of the state of the charging market. This review is aimed at identifying the current state of the market and identifying any areas where improvements can be made. The goal is to ensure that electric vehicle owners have access to convenient and reliable charging stations.     As Sarah Dessen once wrote: “The future was one thing that could never be broken because it had not yet had the chance to be anything.” NACS, or the Next-Generation Automotive Charging System, is a highly promising technology that features a range of benefits for American standard EVs.In recent times, many manufacturers of Electric Vehicle (EV) Connectors have been joining the production ranks of NACS Connectors. With strong production and R&D capabilities, Workersbee will stand out from the competition.   1, Focus on safety and user experience 2, Fully automatic production line to ensure production capacity 3, Super R&D capabilities, five R&D centers 4, Support OEM/ODM to help customers get more markets 5, Perfect quality inspection process

The International Energy Agency (IEA) published the report The Global EV Outlook 2023 in April, and from the global vehicle trading data presented in the report for the first quarter of this year, EV sales reached another record high, up about 25% over the same period last year. Stimulated by various policies and incentives, trading data from countries have shown strong EV growth, but we still seem to have a long way to achieve our decarbonization goals. In other words, the present market share of EVs is nowhere near what is expected for the global achievement of Carbon Reduction targets. Electric Vehicle anxiety makes many ICE drivers hesitant to choose EVs and is a major barrier to further EV popularity. In essence, EV anxiety is not range anxiety as we usually think, but more about the fear of being unable to recharge efficiently after a power shortage. With the explosive growth of the electric vehicle market, the EV charging infrastructure is being pushed to its limits. This means that EV plug is always available to plug in power whenever you need it. Besides promoting the application of home AC chargers, it is imperative to leverage the power of government and utilities to vigorously increase the percentage of public DC charging piles in urban that can replenish energy quickly and efficiently. However, building DC fast charging stations in urban is not an easy task and usually faces several challenges.   The Right Space Although the DC charging time for EVs is getting closer to the refueling time for gasoline vehicles, it is challenging to find the right DC charging space in cities. The planning and layout of charging facilities should consider the needs and behaviors of diverse user groups, particularly in densely populated residential areas and high-value commercial zones. The location selection should consider various factors, including urban public planning, drivers' charging habits, demand frequency, fair access to charging for residents on each street, etc. Whether it is for daily urban life recharge or to facilitate road trips, DC fast charging points are bound to have large enough parking spaces and charging spaces. This would probably involve such things as gas stations, parking lots, apartments, residential and commercial buildings, etc. It should not be overlooked that the prerequisite to start implementing construction is the ability to obtain land and building permits.     Grid Strength Support Electric vehicle charging must be connected to the grid. Compared to low-power home AC chargers, DC fast charging requires a much larger amount of power supply, which may put considerable pressure on the regional grid. First, sufficient energy supply generation must be secured to enable the high output voltage requirements of DC charging posts. Especially in the summer peak, ensuring sufficient power supply and balancing the energy demand of the city is a key issue. In addition, the grid needs to be reliable enough to handle increasing loads, while being resilient enough to withstand bad weather and other potential threats.   Driver Experience Satisfaction As the ultimate user of the charger, the EV driver has an absolute say in the charging experience. DC charging can provide higher power and faster charging speed to the car, gaining significant mileage increase in a short time. This requires chargers to have higher power to ensure they can meet the huge charging demand created by the growing number of EVs. The EVSE must improve its reliability and extend its uptime. To avoid the difficulty of finding available charging piles nearby when EVs run out of battery. The consistency of the vehicle-pile interface protocol is the key to ensuring convenient charging for drivers. Workersbee's charging cable is highly compatible with a wide range of charging standards and has obtained many international authoritative certifications such as UL, TUV, CE, and RoHS. The flexible TPU cable is designed with excellent workmanship, and the connector is easy to plug and unplug without effort. The superior ergonomic design makes it easy to handle and comfortable for the driver to grip during the charging connection preparation stage. The interactive experience of the device is also the part that drivers will concern. The interface of the charger side is clear, friendly, and easy to understand and operate, and the supporting APP of smart devices such as mobile phones can precisely position the location of the charger and be easy to operate, etc. In the payment part of the completed charging, the billing standard should be clear and transparent, in line with market fairness. It is also necessary that the payment operation is convenient and safe, whether through the device side or the APP side. Perhaps the surrounding environment and supporting facilities of the charging station also have to be taken into consideration, such as convenience stores, cafes, or restaurants. Certainly, the parking fees incurred in the charging process need to be charged reasonably.   Operation and Maintenance The high equipment procurement cost and increasingly high-frequency usage rate of DC chargers make the operation and maintenance cost the biggest concern, and the O&M work will be pushed to the front line. The management platform can monitor the operation of each device point remotely, and identify the chargers that are broken down in time, with after-sales support from technicians.      Frequent plugging and unplugging of the charging cable will inevitably cause wear or damage to the terminals inside the gun, which leads to a poor electric connection, affecting the charging speed or even a charging failure. It is also easy to overheat and damage components, significantly shortening the life of the device, and even a serious safety risk. Workersbee's terminal quick-change technology makes DC charging maintenance easier and lower cost. The terminals only need to be replaced individually when they are worn, not the whole plug and the modular operation process is very simple.   Charging Security Safety is a well-deserved topic for electrification applications in urban. The safety of the device, the car, the driver, the installer, and the technical service provider are all intertwined. Equipment needs to meet relevant quality standards and safety codes, including fire and flame retardants, leakage protection, temperature monitoring, overload protection, etc. It can automatically respond to the battery management system of electric vehicles, interact and communicate to ensure the security and efficiency of the charging process. Moreover, special consideration should be given to the potential for accidents occurring under user error operations. Conduct adequate communication tests and electrical safety tests before putting them into use, and equip them with suitable insurance according to the actual situation.   The demand for EVSE in cities is growing exponentially as the number of electric vehicles on the road continues to rise. Developing sustainable business models and ensuring that revenues from charging facilities cover operating costs are the challenges we face if we are to achieve our goal of a decarbonized society. These challenges need to be resolved by governments, urban planners, energy suppliers, and stakeholders working together to drive the development and uptake of EV and EV charging facilities in cities. Stay Charged, Stay Connected.
