DC chargers provide a higher amount of power to electric vehicles, hence requiring more from the grid. To ensure the grid can meet your demands, you’ll need to evaluate the expected EV traffic and their charging behaviors, such as peak charging times and duration of charges. Is There Local Grid Supply Competition?
