- brianbreslin 4y agowhat about power generation at the charging site? i.e. solar on the roof of the charging station. Small scale hydrogen cells? Local battery storage on site so its not all simultaneously drawing from the grid? (I'm not an engineer, just curious)
- mlyle 4y agoArticle says many sites will need 5 megawatts. 5 megawatts) / ((1000 watts) / (square meter))) / .18 = 27 777.7778 m2 And, of course, this is only when sun is shining with max intensity and certainly not delivered at night. Figure in the Northeast you get 4 hours times this power on a typical day, and it’s not aligned with peak charging demand.
