In Stockholm, a fast charging station within the GrowSmarter project is established by Fortum at the parking facility by McDonald’s restaurant. Fast charging stations could provide electric vehicles with fully charged batteries in less than 30 minutes.
In a rapidly urbanising world cities need to become smarter to respond to citizen needs and to reduce their envrionmental foot print. In Stockholm Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) have doubled in number each year for the past four years and are expected to continue to do so for the years to come. Electric vehicles are more energy efficient and powered with electricity which can significantly reduce emissions.
There are different ways of recharging PEVs. The most common is to charge the car battery over a longer period, usually overnight at a low current. Fast charging, on the contrary, allows for an almost empty battery to be fully charged in less than half an hour at a high power charging-station. While low current charging is done while the vehicle is parked, the speed of fast charging is similar to fuelling a petrol or diesel car. Fast charger is crucial for commercial fleets like taxi and courier companies who are the most frequent users. Within the GrowSmarter project, the city of Stockholm aimed to facilitate sustainable e-mobility. Fast charging infrastructure is therefore important to facilitate the transition to an improved vehicle fleet in cities.
The fast charging station within the GrowSmarter poject in Stockholm is established by Fortum together with McDonald’s at the parking facility by McDonald’s restaurant very close to the Valla Torg. The fast charging station could provide electric vehicles with fully charged batteries in less than 30 minutes. It offers three 'standards' for charging: CHAdeMO,CCS, andAC 43 or AC 22.
