@glitzersachen @leanlearnlead granted the faster a battery is charged, the less efficient it is and the more straining it is on the battery chemistry.
- That's an inherent problem with any #BatteryElectricVehicle and the reason why (electrochemically produced!) #Methanol (doesn't require high-pressure-systems like #Hydrogen!) & #FuelCells are the superior solution longterm, as those solves the #EnergyDensity, #ChargingSpeed and #EnergyStorage problems whilst allowing the replacement and conversion of emergency power sources to the use of a renewable fuel.
But aside from that, there's no reason why #BEV #Charging needs to be more complex than these few steps;
1. plug in the vehicle with a CCS2 plug2. select the amount of kWh / money one.wants to spend. (being able to abort if the energy price is abdurdly high!)3. pay with card (NFC+PIN).4. upon payment confirmation, the vehucle gets charged and the charging station shows an estimated completion timer & offers sending a notification via eMail or SMS.5. Once completed, the charging station will unlock the plug/socket and send said notification out. In the meantime another customer could just pull the unlocked plug and start their charging.
Just like on a (abeit slow) gas pump!
