The high cost of grid electricity storage makes it best suited for high-value, short-term, frequency regulation; the lower value market for peak-shifted photovoltaic electricity is largely unprofitable, except where geography provides suitable reservoirs for lower-cost pumped-storage hydroelectricity. —DE-FOA-0000949.

All electric motors used by Audi are liquid-cooled, so as to maintain their reliable operating temperature of at most 180 °C (356 °F). The interior of the power electronics attains temperatures considerably higher than 100°C (212 °F). In theory stations with up to 150 kW are conceivable. The passive circuit delivers about 0.5
