METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND DEVICES FOR IMPROVED ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING

摘要

A car charging station in which battery buffering includes at least approximately as much energy as is required to charge one car rapidly. This is particularly advantageous when a photovoltaic array is connected through a power converter to charge the battery, and also to provide a lower rate of charge directly to the vehicle charge connections. Advantageously, a mains power connection can also be made through yet another port of the same multiport power converter.
