How Long does it Take to Charge an EV?

The time taken to charge an electric vehicle range from less than 30 minutes or more than 12 hours. This mainly depends on the capacity of the battery and the speed (power) of the ev charger. We have a simple formula to calculate the time: Time of Recharging=Battery Capacity/ EV Charger Power. For example, if you have a Nissan LEAF (2018) whose battery capacity is 40kWh, it will take about 11 hours (40kWh/ 3.7kW) to charge with a 3.7kW charger. While with a 50kW rapid charging point, it only takes about 1 hour to charge this Nissan LEAF. In conclusion, the bigger your car’s battery capacity and the slower the ev charger, the longer it will take to charge the car from empty to full.

5G + Smart Charging Pile

On March 4th, Jiangsu’s first “5G+ Smart Charging Pile” was put into operation at a Fast Charging Station of Yangzhou, Jiangsu. The charging pile integrates car charging, 5G micro-station, smart lighting and video surveillance into one. It functions as a multi-purpose pile which effectively saves land resources, reduces construction costs, and facilitates the construction of new infrastructure in smart cities.

A New Production Line is Available

The YT factory is witnessing new production lines established in 2021. Recently, we had a two production lines newly opened.

FAQs on Buying Portable EV Chargers

According to researches, over 80% of the electric car users charge their EVs overnight at home or at work. It’s ideal if you have a dedicated parking space at home or place of work for your EV. Does it mean that you need to wait until the charging infrastructure is established before purchasing an EV? Is there another solution?

How to Recycle Post-consumer EV Batteries?

Energy storage systems, usually batteries, are essential for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and all-electric vehicles (EVs). For a long time, battery life and cost have been the technical bottleneck restricting the development of electric vehicles. Luckily we have never stopped our efforts in battery technology improvement and innovation.

Hydrogen or Direct Electricity for EVs

New interest in hydrogen has come from the mobility, freight, shipping, power, and industrial processing sectors as they strive to move toward a decarbonized future.The development of the hydrogen market reflects the potential for distributed production and the need for flexibility in our transport mix. For example, hydrogen fuel cell buses typically have a range of approximately 500 km, versus 200 km for electric buses. With this range, hydrogen has both the potential to decarbonize rural transport and to offer a solution for uninterrupted services.

Why do we need a portable EV charger?

Why does your electric car have less range in winter?

With recent cold waves hitting many countries, many parts of the northern hemisphere have witnessed extreme low temperatures. The severe cold has greatly reduced the battery life of electric vehicles. On the one hand, in recent years, auto companies have continuously announced that their electric vehicle range has increased significantly, but this is a far cry from meeting demand. In cold weather, the ev range is greatly reduced, as complained by electric car owners again and again. Zhong Shi, a senior analyst in the automotive industry, said that, domestically-made Chinese electric vehicles are facing this problem as their foreign counterparts. “
