As an electric car owner or enthusiast, you might be interested in the new charging station that has been installed in Walferdange, Luxembourg, next to the Garage Losch.
This charging station is part of the SWIO network that has more than 100 public charging points in Luxembourg, and also offers access to over 200,000 charging points across Europe
What makes this charging station special is that it offers charging at the speed of 400 kW, which is one of the fastest rates in the world.
To put this into perspective, most electric cars consume around 25 kW per 100 km under normal conditions, which means that a 400 kW charger could theoretically add 400 km of range in just 15 minutes.
However, this is only possible if the electric car can handle such a high charge rate, which is not the case for the models on the market today. The charge rate depends on several factors, such as the battery size, the voltage, the temperature, and the state of charge. Most electric cars today can charge at speeds ranging from 50 kW to 350 kW.
This means that the new charging station in Walferdange is ahead of its time, as it is ready to accommodate the future generation of electric cars that will be able to charge at 400 kW or even higher. This will make electric mobility more convenient and attractive, as it will reduce the charging time and increase the driving range. The future is paved, we are waiting for the technology to follow.
