The future development of two wheel battery swapping has made the deployment strategy of battery swapping cabinets a key factor.

With the implementation of the new national standard for two wheeled electric vehicles and the widespread popularity of electric vehicles, the issue of battery range and methods to solve it are becoming increasingly important, and the battery swapping mode has quickly entered the public eye. The construction model proposed by State Grid Corporation of China in 2011 is to store and charge a large number of batteries through centralized charging and swapping stations, and provide battery replacement services for electric vehicles within the swapping stations. This is also the core of most swapping brands currently based on.

The advantage of the battery swapping mode is that multiple battery compartments take turns charging, and the swapping station does not have to undertake the task of large-scale charging in a short period of time, which reduces the difficulty of grid connection to a certain extent. The battery swapping mode is based on the battery swapping cabinet, which currently has both charging and battery replacement functions on the market. The station includes a power supply system, charging system, battery replacement system, monitoring system, battery detection system, and maintenance management system. The advantages of this mode from a macro perspective are that unified charging management can effectively participate in load regulation and system peak shaving, improve the compliance rate of the power grid, minimize the adverse effects of harmonic pollution on the power grid, and thus improve the overall operational efficiency of the entire system. The disadvantage is that site selection is somewhat difficult, considering both construction costs and geographical location, as well as grid access. Although the alternating charging method can alleviate the pressure on the power grid, areas with high electricity usage such as communities, commercial districts, and business parks are also areas with high demand for battery swapping, and the pressure on the power grid still exists.

At present, the network density of major brands is only one of the key factors for users to choose a brand. Many riders are still in the stage of "choosing the brand that has longer endurance and is closer to home". But in the future, the factors that will affect users' choices more are actually product quality and service quality. As of 2022, the number of food delivery riders in China has reached 13 million, and the penetration rate of battery swapping services is only about 30%. In the future, more riders will use battery swapping. If the operation service of battery swapping brands is sincere and the battery quality is excellent, the profit margin will be broad enough.
