Analysis of stakeholder on the construction of electric vehicle charging station in China

The electric vehicle charging station, which is the basis infrastructure of the new electric vehicle industry, restricts the arraying speed of the industry. For the time being, the relationship between the relevant stakeholders is still confusing. The “deadlock” situation make the four stakeholders - government, charging station operators, consumers, manufacturers keep their pace slowly. In this article, the complex relationship between the stakeholders is summarized by game analysis model based on game theory. The core status of the government is confirmed and the mode how it affect other stakeholders is showed out. We also tease out the key constraints-charging price to make the sensitivity analysis to make it more directly to understand the process. One fast charging station being operated in Beijing is taken as an example to explain the impacts of charging price on the stakeholders, concluding that at the early stage of the construction and development of the charging stations, government investment is needed badly, adequate subsidies for operators and consumers will largely promote the development of the electric vehicle charging station in China.
