FAQs

Both the maximum charging capacity of the station and the maximum charging capacity of the vehicle represent values under optimal conditions. In reality, these are rarely present. In general, it can be said that a charging station always provides as much power as the vehicle requests. This means that if the charging station can provide 180 kW, but the vehicle only requests 50 kW, only 50 kW will be supplied. For a charging process to use the maximum charging power specified for the vehicle, a number of factors are crucial:
1) The temperature of the battery and the environment: If the battery is too warm or too cold, the car communicates with the charging station that it cannot charge at full power.
2) The age of the battery: The battery can degrade in performance and capacity due to age.
3) The current state of charge of the battery - SOC level: For the last 50%, charging performance can decrease depending on the car. This is to protect the battery.
4) The general charging curve of the vehicle: Depending on the manufacturer or model, this curve varies to a greater or lesser extent.
5) Power supply at the charging station: If there are many charging stations in one place, they have to share the charging power from the grid. It may then not be possible to provide full power at all charging stations.
6) Total power available at the charging station In these cases, our customer support cannot help. However, we generally do not limit the charging power of the charging stations.
