CJNOO Sustainable Energy Hosts Heavy-Duty Truck Charging Summit in Shanghai

Shanghai, China | May 18, 2026

During the 2026 CPSE Shanghai Charging & Swapping Expo, CJNOO Sustainable Energy, in partnership with Ewa Research Institute, successfully hosted the Heavy-Duty Truck Charging Infrastructure Investment & Operation Closed-Door Summit at the Shanghai Auto Exhibition Center.

The event brought together nearly 50 industry leaders, including charging infrastructure investors, fleet operators, logistics companies, and energy ecosystem partners, to explore the future of commercial EV charging under the integrated framework of capital, technology, and operation.

Accelerating the Transition to Electric Heavy-Duty Transport

China’s new energy heavy-duty truck market continues to expand rapidly. From January to April 2026, penetration of new energy heavy-duty trucks reached 27.9%, highlighting strong momentum across the commercial transportation sector.

However, large-scale charging infrastructure deployment still faces several industry-wide challenges, including:

  • Complex site selection
  • High initial investment
  • Long project deployment cycles
  • Grid capacity limitations
  • Low operational efficiency
  • Difficult profitability management

To address these issues, CJNOO Sustainable Energy introduced its integrated “Three-Ones” service framework designed specifically for heavy-duty truck charging projects:

  • One-stop site selection support for rapid identification of high-potential locations
  • One-to-one customized station design based on transport routes and fleet structures
  • One integrated solution package covering charging equipment, digital platforms, and operation & maintenance services

Launch of the “CJNOO UltraCharge · Weiguang Core” Solution

Together with Weiguang Energy, CJNOO Sustainable Energy also unveiled the CJNOO UltraCharge · Weiguang Core integrated DC bus solution for heavy-duty truck charging applications.

Built around solid-state transformer (SST) technology, the solution integrates:

  • Ultra-fast charging
  • High-rate energy storage
  • Virtual Power Plant (VPP) capabilities
  • High-voltage direct-connection architecture

The highly integrated system can reportedly be deployed within two days and delivers station efficiency of up to 97.5%, helping operators improve both energy performance and return on investment.

Real-World Operational Success Stories

The summit also featured case studies from charging station operators actively deploying and scaling heavy-duty truck charging networks.

One operator from Hunan shared its transformation from traditional aggregate and real estate businesses into new energy transportation operations. By deploying self-owned electric heavy-duty trucks and strategically locating charging stations along mining transport routes, the company achieved rapid project implementation with support from CJNOO Sustainable Energy in grid coordination and station construction.

The station became operational within two months and now delivers more than 800,000 kWh of charging volume per month, with an estimated payback period of approximately three years.

Another operator from Liaoning presented a large-scale network model featuring:

  • 6 operational charging stations
  • 215 self-owned electric heavy-duty trucks
  • More than 54 million kWh of cumulative charging volume

The company’s strategy focuses on utilizing existing industrial land resources while deploying stations near ports, steel plants, and mining areas. Additional driver-focused services, including dining, accommodation, and vehicle maintenance, help improve station utilization and operational stickiness.

Building a Smarter Energy Ecosystem

The summit also highlighted the growing importance of financial and energy management services in commercial charging operations.

Zhongguancun Tech Leasing introduced financing solutions combining leasing, investment, and operational services to help reduce upfront capital pressure and accelerate infrastructure deployment.

Meanwhile, CJNOO Sustainable Energy shared its latest advancements in power trading, virtual power plant (VPP) dispatch, and microgrid optimization. Through intelligent energy management, pilot projects across Hunan, Guangdong, and Zhejiang have reportedly reduced electricity costs by approximately RMB 0.1 per kWh, generating annual savings of nearly RMB 1 million per station in some cases.

Driving the Future of Integrated Energy Solutions

Looking ahead, CJNOO Sustainable Energy will continue advancing integrated “vehicle–charger–grid” solutions while expanding capabilities in solar-storage-charging integration, virtual power plants, and intelligent energy management services.

By working closely with industry partners, the company aims to accelerate the development of a more efficient, sustainable, and intelligent commercial EV charging ecosystem.
