Placing shared power banks in these high traffic areas can meet the charging needs of a large number of passengers, increase usage and revenue

Secondly, passengers spend a long time at subway stations. Many passengers need to wait for a long time while waiting for the bus, and their phone battery is easily depleted. Especially during peak hours, passengers may need to wait for a long time, and providing shared power bank services can alleviate their battery anxiety and enhance their travel experience
