Grid congestion is imminent If we look at the big picture, EV charging only accounts for about 4% of total demand for electricity; not something for utilities to be alarmed about. With over 123,000 public and semi-public charging stations in the Netherlands, the grid is already experiencing severe congestion.

The testing involved, because the energy levels are so high, just takes time. You’re operating close in neighborhoods, so the quiet is a huge advantage, and you have room to have a pretty good-sized electric actuator on a garbage truck because it’s a bigger vehicle.

A lot of people don’t understand how that can be, but if you think about the topology of a charger, there’s the power electronics that are connected to the grid—that’s where the cabinet is—then there’s a cable going from there to where the vehicle is, and then there’s vehicle coupling. That’s at today’s energy prices.
