Since 2017, charging pile operations have become profitable, and the private sector has begun to inject capital into this new business. However, Japan relies on subsidies to develop these infrastructures. Among the 30,000 charging piles in Japan, about 20,000 received government subsidies and were constructed from 2013 to 2016.
Japan aims to develop a society with EV charging infrastructure that is highly convenient and sustainable, on par with the rest of the world, comprehensively taking into account the three principles of "improving user convenience," "making EV charging businesses more independent and sophisticated,” and "reducing burdens on society as a whole.”
There are only 490 rapid chargers available in Tokyo due partly to the high installation cost of around 15 to 20 million yen ($100,000 to $134,000). In comparison, there are around 1,000 gas stations in the region, typically equipped with multiple pumps, to serve the overwhelming majority of motorists who drive gasoline-fueled cars.
The government has allocated 30 billion yen since last fiscal year to subsidize the installation of chargers and is expected to further increase such support in the future. To jump-start Japan’s stagnant electric vehicle market, a charging network operator unveiled ambitious plans to install 1,000 rapid chargers in Tokyo over the next two years.
After the charging pile failed in 2019, Yonago decided not to repair the charging pile because the repair would cost nearly 1 million yen (approximately US$9,100). Toko Takaoka, a manufacturer of charging stations, said that a fast charging station has a lifespan of 8 years.
Japan's capital Tokyo will get an extensive fast-charging network for electric vehicles. Terra Motors aims to build ultra-fast charging stations at 1,000 locations in the metropolis by March 2026.
