3.6.1 Case study: ABB EV charging infrastructure
Course subject(s)
Module 3. Charging of EVs
Now that we have learnt about all the EV charging concepts, let us now look at how it is done in the real world. For this, we will have a case study with ABB EV Charging Infrastructure (http://new.abb.com/ev-charging) and meet with Crijn Bouwman, Vice President of Product Management.
ABB specializes in DC fast chargers ranging from 50kW to 150kW (Chademo, Combo, GB/T) with modular chargers going upto 400kW. They also offer AC charging solutions for electric cars and overnight and opportunity chargers for busses and trucks.
Now lets us discuss with Crijn and learn more about how current and future technology trends in EV charging:
-
-
- Key technology enablers for compact, efficient and low cost fast chargers for electric vehicles
- How does the charging technology for cars differ from that for busses and trucks?
- Trend to move from 50 kW charging powers to 350kW powers and higher
- Biggest challenges for smart charging and vehicle to grid technology
- Flash charging and opp-charging for electric busses
- What are the unique selling points of ABB EV chargers?
- What is the future of EV charging ?
