READ MORECharging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EV) will be the key factor for ensuring a smooth transition to e-mobility. This paper focuses on five technologies that will play a fundamental role in this regard: smart charging, vehicle-to-grid (V2G), charging of EVs from photovoltaic panels (PV), contactless charging and on-road charging of EVs.
READ MOREVehicle-to-grid. Typically, EVs draw power from the grid, but the future of EV charging means they might also give it back with vehicle-to-grid technology (or V2G). Today, when an EV charges, it turns the grid''s alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) and stores it. An emerging technology called bidirectional conversion technology
