I. Introduction: A Paradigm Shift from "Queue Anxiety" to "Dynamic Energy Supply"
Against the backdrop of rapid electrification of highway networks in Europe and the United States, the adoption of electric heavy-duty trucks is accelerating significantly. According to data from the U.S. Department of Energy and the Transport Environment Alliance (T&E):
| Indicators | 2022 | 2025 (Forecast) | 2030 (Forecast) |
| Electric Heavy Truck Ownership (Europe and America) | 80,000 units | 350,000 units | 2 million units |
| High-Speed Charging Demand Growth Rate | - | 48% CAGR | Continued Growth |
| Service Area Charging Station Shortage | Approximately 60% | Still Above 40% | Structural Shortage |
However, infrastructure construction is severely lagging, especially in highway service areas, where typical problems have emerged:
* Insufficient number of charging stations
* Scarcity of high-power DC charging stations (≥350kW)
* Heavy truck waiting times of 1-3 hours
* Difficulty in finding a charging station has become a core pain point for drivers
Against this backdrop, Mobile Electric Vehicle Charging is emerging as a new solution, and Door Energy is a key driver in this field.

II. The Era of Electric Heavy-Duty Trucks: Core Bottlenecks Facing Highway Service Areas
1. Heavy-Duty Truck Charging Demand Far Exceeds Passenger Vehicles
Compared to ordinary electric vehicles, the charging demand for heavy-duty trucks shows exponential growth:
| Comparison Dimensions | Passenger Vehicles | Electric Heavy-Duty Trucks |
| Battery Capacity | 50-100 kWh | 300-900 kWh |
| Single Charging Time (Fast Charging) | 30-60 minutes | 1-2 hours |
| Average Daily Mileage | 50-150 km | 300-800 km |
| Charging Frequency | Every 2-3 days | Once daily |
Conclusion: One heavy-duty truck ≈ the charging demand of 5-10 passenger vehicles
2. Extremely High Difficulty in Expanding Service Area Infrastructure
Upgrading highway service areas faces multiple constraints:
* Grid Capacity Constraint
* Insufficient Land Space (especially in Europe)
* Long upgrade cycle (typically 12-24 months)
* Extremely high CAPEX (upgrade per station can reach $2M+)
3. Queuing and Efficiency Loss
According to data from the European Logistics Association:
| Indicator | Value |
| Average Queuing Time | 45-120 minutes |
| Peak Waiting Time | >180 minutes |
| Daily Loss of Operating Time per Vehicle | 2-4 hours |
| Annual Operating Loss (per Vehicle) | $8,000-$15,000 |
For fleets, this is not just a matter of experience, but a direct economic loss
