Charging in the list
In Zibo, folding charging into the renovation list means old areas can also use standardized charging. Property and operators seize the renovation chance to co-build centralized points together.
Zibo front-loads capacity assessment and expansion to avoid the post-renovation trap of "piles but no power", so the infrastructure actually serves residents.
A people-centered idea
From the industry, old areas are both incremental space and a governance difficulty, and unified build-and-serve is the key fix. Adding charging to the list reflects a "people-centered" renewal idea: infrastructure follows residents' real demand.
Practical advice
Operators should treat old areas as a key service scene. Residents can watch renovation notices and voice charging-spot needs. Property should use the renovation to also straighten charging order. Dongdian Huichong, of Dongshang New Energy, provides 7x24 monitoring and local operation in Zibo for community and public charging. Contact 133-9535-8768 or the Yantai line 185-6100-3793. Old neighborhoods thus gain both safer streets and a fairer share of public investment.
