There is no doubt in the fact that EVs are the future of the vehicle industry. But one thing that is still left to be addressed is the time taken to charge an electric vehicle.

Fast Charging Always the Question

The common question asked with respect to EV is always, will EVs be charged in the amount of time taken to fill up a tank of a vehicle with petrol, diesel or even gas. Innovations have been happening in order to decrease the time taken for the electric vehicles to charge.

 Governments are trying to come up with initiatives to boost the sales of electric vehicles, but this dream can turn in reality only than there is a proper fast charging infrastructure all over the world.

Why Not Slow Charging for EVs?

Slow charging, usually takes 6 to 12 hours at a 3kW power. Fast charging is becoming common in public infra, can take 1 to 3 hours at a power of 7-22kW.

Ultra-fast charging is the need of the hour to achieve the dream of complete electrification of vehicles, as will the infra for charging an ever-growing vehicle count. This infra could, eventually, be arranged in charging hubs in city centres, as planners build shifting mobility necessities into city design.

Managing the Grid Well

The power grid will take a huge toll, with the fast charging infra coming in place for charging electric vehicles, so a lot of thinking will be put in place for developing such an infra for fast charging, that charges the vehicles in a jiffy, and at the same time do not put much burden on the grid.

If a lot of vehicles are charged at the same time, then there is every chance that the grid will overloaded. Innovative solutions are needed to be thought of to build a bridge between the demand and supply. Battery storage systems can also be thought of.
