Policy Background
Shandong Doc 667 simplifies applications so more households get compliant independent-metering meters. NDRC rules let directly reported, independently metered users choose time-of-use rates, with valley rates clearly below flat rates making night charging cheaper.
Local Rollout in Fushan
In Fushan District, after utilities open time-of-use billing, plug-in-at-night and full-by-morning has become the new normal. Operators show billing details clearly in their apps, and home-pile users commonly choose valley-period charging, lowering costs noticeably.
Transparency Builds Trust
In Fushan, cost transparency is the greatest source of trust; explaining every kilowatt-hour lets residents use the service long term with confidence. The clearer the billing breakdown, the fewer complaints and the higher the repeat-use rate.
Practical Guidance
Property can fold valley tips into community education. Operators should show a monthly electricity-cost view in the app, and residents can apply for independent metering and time-of-use rates and charge mostly in valley periods.
Local Service and Support
In Fushan District, Dongshang New Energy operates charging sites across Yantai and surrounding counties in Shandong. Under its Dongdian Huichong brand, the company provides survey, construction, and managed-operation services for communities and public stations, backed by 7x24 smart monitoring and a local maintenance team.
