Japan testing fixed fee electric vehicle charging

A fixed fee electric vehicle charging service is being tested by several oil wholesalers in Japan.

JX Nippon Oil, Cosmo Oil Company, Showa Shell Sekiyu KK and Idemitsu Kosan Company have teamed up to test the service at 27 of their affiliated stations across Kanagawa Prefecture and Tokyo.

Known as the Electric Vehicle Station Network, members can charge their plug-in vehicles at the stations with any of the four members.

Currently, JX Nippon Oil has the most participating stations and its plan is to start offering a monthly fee of Y3,000 (US$38) for individuals and corporate card holders. Customers will be able to charge their vehicles at any of the stations with the four companies also providing additional services while customers wait for their vehicles to recharge.
