The main reasons why subway stations are suitable for placing shared power banks include high foot traffic, long passenger stays, and strong demand for charging.
Firstly, the subway station has a high passenger flow, with a large number of passengers entering and exiting every day. Whether they are office workers, students, or tourists, they all need to use their mobile phones for navigation, payment, and other operations, and the battery consumption of mobile phones is relatively fast. 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
In addition, there is a strong demand for charging at subway stations. Many passengers are unable to charge their phones in a timely manner while taking the subway, especially when traveling across regions. Insufficient phone power can cause great inconvenience. After the introduction of shared charging services in Shenzhen Metro, passengers can borrow at the entrance and return at the exit, which is flexible and convenient to use, greatly meeting their charging needs
Finally, the shared power bank has a good user experience at the subway station. Users can scan shared power bank cabinets through the app and enjoy safe and fast instant charging services. This “remote borrowing and returning” function allows users to efficiently borrow and return power banks in the subway network, further enhancing the user experience
