Delta kicks off DOE-sponsored program to develop microgrid-capable solid state transformer-based 400 kW fast chargers for EVs; XFC

Green Car Congress

The proposed XFC design is expected to offer grid-to-vehicle efficiency up to 96.5%—four —four times less weight and half the size of conventional DC fast EV chargers (DCFC), as well as a high voltage direct current (HVDC) port to utilize energy storage and renewable energy systems, minimizing demand on the power grid.

ChargePoint’s roadmap: EV charging 80% home/work, 20% public/fast, “virtual batteries” for utilities

Green Car Congress

Long-range EVs will need ultra-fast DC charging for long-distance trips, while electric buses and service trucks require high-power charging for their daily routines. In the power grid, supply and demand need to match exactly. We need more power-system flexibility as renewable-generation penetration grows.
