The EV charging service industry in Taiwan started in 2012-2015. It was initially a government-led pilot scheme to assist the industry through the setting up of the first charging stations in 2012. The U.S. EV maker Tesla entered Taiwan in 2016 and deployed its own fast charging stations around the island, thereby opening up the mass market for EVs. By 2019, carmakers from Europe, the U.S., Japan and Korea such as Volvo, Nissan, Hyundai, Jaguar, Kia and Porsche were launching EV models in Taiwan, and as a result, many new entrants joined the EV charging service market. Companies from the automobile, energy, communications, real estate, parking lot management and media industries all became involved in the deployment, operation and management of charging stations, as well as the related information and payment services.
