ABB Announces Worlds Fastest EV Charger
-
ABB announced a new EV charger that claims it can charge any EV completely in 15 minutes and 62 miles in three minutes. Will be in Europe first then coming to the US. Not much information on Charging standards and plugs supported.
Good to see tech progress in EV charging

I am sceptical of the claim that it can charge ANY EV in 15 minutes. That sounds like journalistic imprecision to me, and goes against my limited understanding of how batteries charge.

You are probably right. Blinded by the scintillating prose of the article

Most DC fast chargers intake 3phase 480v making fast chargers out of reach in residential. I’ve seen a few that can take 1phase 240v at high amperage, but I think there is a practical cap on the rate of fast charging at home vs “fuel stations” at work or on the road.
