An ultrafast charging station for electric vehicles (EV), which can charge 20 cars all at once and add over 200 kilometers of battery life to the cars within eight minutes, started operation on Monday in southeast China's Ningde City, Fujian Province, China Media Group reported.
It's the country's first standardized smart EV charging station that integrates charging piles with an energy storage system powered by a direct current (DC) microgrid, the report said.
Covering an area of 2,100 square meters, the charging station has a megawatt-level energy storage system. With solar panels on its roof, it can use solar energy and store it to charge the cars.
It can also conduct a "physical examination" of the batteries being charged and send the battery performance test results to the car owners, providing them with accurate and scientific battery maintenance suggestions, the report said.
Such charging stations offer fast and safe charging solutions and battery performance check services for EVs in urban areas, where more and more EVs are on the road. Read More...
