The beating heart of EV charging lies in the software and management systems that enable this dynamic market. To save development and maintenance costs, and to leverage emerging standards, charging station manufacturers increasingly turn to EV ecosystem partners. Type 2 chargers can also be installed in-home for faster charging.

The growth of 2021 EV sales, driven by strong demand in Europe and China, far exceeded the total car market, which was up 26%. To meet future demand, EU regulations call for a ratio of 1 public charger per 10 EVs and will require member countries to install charging points every 60 kilometers on public highways.

The winds had barely died down when electric-power specialists and others began calling for a radical overhaul of Puerto Rico’s electricity networks, one that would emphasize renewable energy, distributed generation, and, critically, microgrids. A microgrid is like a miniaturized, tightly controlled version of a power grid.

Scientist have confirmed that unlike gasoline cars, plug-ins will get cleaner as they get older -- because our power grid is getting cleaner. Only PHEVs and battery EVs get cleaner as they get older - because the electric grid gets cleaner every decade. But theyve needed definitive proof that PHEVs wont increase pollution.

Some wind farms are capable of powering 500,000 homes or more. Currently, Europe leads the market, making up almost 80 percent of OFW capacity. However, the worldwide demand for energy is expected to increase by 20 percent in 10 years, with a large majority of that demand supplied by sustainable energy sources like wind power.
