Regardless of how or where you charge, not all the electrical energy pulled from the grid—those watts—will make it into the “fuel tank” (battery). EV batteries store and produce DC electricity, not AC electricity. DC fast chargers convert AC grid power to DC charging power in the charger itself, not in the vehicle.

Electricity is a commodity that is bought and sold, and yet unlike most other commodities, it cannot easily be stored. If too much or too little electricity is present in the power grid, the network can suddenly become unbalanced. Once electricity is generated and passes into the grid, it is typically used almost immediately.
