Introduction Did you know that over 80 percent of EV charging in Europe and many Asia‑Pacific markets already happens at home? That simple statistic explains why residential AC chargers have become the unsung heroes of the e‑mobility revolution. In this post we’ll explore: How AC charging actually works Key hardware & smart‑software features ...
Reactive power demand and charging are important concepts in electrical power systems, particularly in the context of power quality, grid stability, and efficient energy management. Here’s an explanation of both: Reactive Power Demand Reactive power (measured in VAR, Volt-Ampere Reactive) is the power required by inductive or capacitive loads to sustain electromagnetic fields in devices...
Yes, sometimes. Plug‑in AC chargers (e.g., NEMA 5‑15, 6‑20, 14‑50, or IEC plug types) are realistic DIY if an appropriately rated, existing receptacle is already present and code‑compliant. Hardwired EVSE, new circuits, or panel upgrades generally require permits, inspection, and often a licensed electrician. Many jurisdictions mandate it. The safe path: complete the eligibili...
Protecting Your EV Battery: The Role of Smart Home Charging Solutions EV batteries are expensive, sophisticated electrochemical systems. How you charge them—especially at home, where most charging happens—has a direct impact on long-term capacity, performance, and resale value. Smart home charging solutions turn a simple power outlet into a battery-aware system that manag...
In today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape, the transition toward cleaner and smarter technologies has become more than a global trend—it is a necessity. With the increasing demand for sustainable energy, the way we generate, store, and consume electricity is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Three key technologies stand at the center of this transition: EV charging stations, ...
We can definitively state that for high-power DC charging piles in gas stations or service areas, it is highly recommended, and in many cases essential, to install a Static Var Generator (SVG) or an Active Power Filter (APF) alongside them. The ideal solution is often a hybrid device that combines both functions, such as a Hybrid-APF or an Active Reactive Compenser (ARC). This is not an "opti...
