EV fast chargers – the big tall units that look like major appliances – aren’t generally designed to completely fill an EV’s batteries.
A line of EVs wait to charge at Electrify America chargers in East Brunswick, New Jersey, on July 6.
At 10 of the busiest EV fast charging stations in California, Electrify America has enacted a strict limit.
There can also be other legitimate reasons a driver may want to charge to 100% at a fast charger, said Barrosa.
Cases like these are why Electrify America probably won’t institute an overall charging cap at charging stations near major highways, he said.
