A research project called “FastCharge” yesterday demonstrated just much progress had been made. A prototype 450W charging station in Bavaria was able to give an electric car 100km of range in just 3 minutes. Going from 10% to 80% battery percentage/state of charge took just 15 minutes!
“FastCharge” is being run by an industry consortium under the leadership of the BMW Group; its other members are Allego GmbH, Phoenix Contact E-Mobility GmbH, Dr. Ing. h. c. F. Porsche AG and Siemens AG.
