Super-rapid Charging
JFE Engineering Corporation is developing a quick charge system that it claims can take a battery from zero charge to 50% full in about 3 minutes. It has two batteries, one that stores electrical energy from the grid and another that delivers it to the car at extremely high current (500-600 amps), which allows it to use a low-voltage power supply. The company claims that even though one station costs about $63,000, that’s roughly 40% less than the competing CHAdeMO system.
