Charging speeds for electric vehicles (EVs) vary widely, from as little as 15 minutes using an ultra-rapid 350 kW charger, to as much as 24 hours when relying on a domestic wall outlet. IDTechEx forecasts that most of the new DC charging installations will be in the 100+ kW power classes. What does a fast-charging curve tell us?
