Japanese automakers
established the Japanese charging standard for electric vehicles and a total of
8 western automakers including GM and Volkswagen promote the Combined Charging
System. CHAdeMO Association promotes the Japanese standard, and Toshiyuki
Shiba, Chief Operating Office of Nissan Motor, is the president of the CHAdeMO
that puns for “Let’s have a tea while charging” in English. He stated in a
press conference that his association would seek the way for the coexistence of
the Japanese standard and the western standard, instead of allowing them to
compete. He will collaborate with International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) to seek the coexistence of the two standards.
He told, “It is
possible to let the two standards coexist and make them compatible because they
are almost the same with only a 5% difference in structure that includes the
connector figure and the charge control system.” IEC is scheduled to register
the Japanese standard, western standard, and Chinese standard and bring them
into effect next summer. Before IEC’s decision, his association will make strenuous
efforts to work with foreign governments for the coexistence of the three
standards.
