I just know my prepping and battery collecting will pay off one day, possibly quite soon.

New paper just out today: *A dynamic model of a power conversion system with indirect thermal energy storage for a pulsed fusion tokamak for use in design optimisation*.

The DOI doesn't work yet but DM me for a share link from Elsevier if interested.

@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 plug
2. 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!
