Public Battery Swapping Station
A public battery swapping station is a battery swapping station owned and operated by a private entity but open to the public for applicable charges. These stations are typically located in places with high demand for battery swapping, such as near major transportation hubs or in areas with many electric vehicles.
A public captive battery swapping station is a facility where batteries of electric vehicles can be exchanged or swapped, accessible to a specific group of users such as employees, residents, or fleet vehicles, but not open to the general public. These stations are typically managed by an organization or community.
