OEMs shifting towards onboard chargers > 6 kW for EVs; lower output chargers to remain dominant through 2020

Green Car Congress

Most battery and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) manufacturers in Europe and the US have been adopting onboard chargers with a power output between 3 to 3.7 Now, EV manufacturers are moving towards onboard chargers with a power output greater than 6.6 Consequently, onboard chargers with power ratings between 3 to 3.7

Why gas stations should add EV chargers?

Setec Powerr

EV chargers are divided into two key types: AC chargers and DC fast chargers. Some models will take several hours to charge if plugged into a charger, others need a few minutes only when plugged into a DC charger. For example, using SETEC POWER’s 180kW fast charger , EVs can be charged from 0-80% in just 10 minutes.

EV Charging Station needs better solution

Setec Powerr

Electric vehicles can charge fast with a DC charging station. There could also be charge voltage that the charger needs charging, as an example, the voltage of 30 kW of 100-volt power supply will make car charge in 5 – 6 hrs as against 20 / hour. For that one needs EV grid infrastructure.

The Complex Calculus of Clean Energy and Zero Emissions

Cars That Think

Jenkins has also helped push Congress to think more seriously about the power grid, releasing a report last year that showed that much of the 43 percent emissions reduction expected by 2030 would be squandered if the United States doesn’t double the pace of transmission upgrades. In the past two years, the U.S. C in this century.

California Energy Commission awards more than $1.8M additional funding to further UCSD microgrid project; energy storage, EV charging and V2G services are components

Green Car Congress

The Commission also approved funding of $220,554 to expand the campus’ burgeoning charging network for plug-in electric vehicles, through the Commission’s Alternative and Renewable Fuel and Vehicle Technology Program, created by Assembly Bill 118. This will reduce the indirect cost of solar power to California ratepayers.
