How many types of charges are there for battery replacement cabinets in Tokyo

Why does Tokyo need a battery swapping network?

Because batteries charge gradually at the station rather than drawing high loads from the grid, swapping also reduces strain on Tokyo’s energy infrastructure while ensuring a steady supply of power. This expansion of Ample’s swapping network will provide additional coverage and capacity, with each station able to support over 100 vehicles.
