Managing peak demand is key for avoiding demand charges, which would add thousands of dollars per month to a building's electrical bills due to EV charging.

The Quasar 2 allows V2X-enabled electric vehicles to function as large power banks, capable of powering the home during blackouts.

Owning an ID.4 gets easier soon with connected payments.

Consumers face hurdles with EV charging—not the least of which are visible prices and 'round-the-clock availability.

Battery buffers and a modular format could help Audi establish major-metro fast-charging stations that look like airport lounges or clubhouses.

Although there isn't enough funding for the 500,000-charger goal, the Biden-Harris administration is laying out the approach it'll take in establishing a national charger network.

A planned route calls for nine stations less than 100 miles apart, and will partly use funds from the Volkswagen diesel settlement.

Battery-based energy storage is increasingly what charging networks are turning to in order to avoid utilities' cost-prohibitive demand charges.

The two plan a network of co-branded battery swapping sites, plus fleet management, home charging, and charging networks.

A coordinated home-energy ecosystem is set up to be a great complement to the Ioniq 5 EV, with solar, energy storage, and more.

The plan also includes money for zero-emission vehicle manufacturing, on the way to a 2035 target for a shift entirely to battery-electric and fuel-cell vehicles.

A cooling method being explored by Ford and Purdue University is considering using coolant phase changes instead of just circulating liquid; that could introduce packaging advantages and make the system more efficient.

Those who aren't seriously considering an EV might be more easily convinced if they could skip heavy charge cables and plugging in.

The $1.2 trillion infrastructure contains support for Biden's 500,000-charger goal—but more EV policy is included in the second bill.

In collaboration with the ORNL and the University of Tennessee, Volkswagen wants to test wireless charging in a Porsche Taycan at up to 300 kw.

The charging network that started with the VW diesel settlement is bringing its electric vehicle charging infrastructure to long-haul road-trip waypoints like Wall, South Dakota.

An 800-volt platform plus 480-kw DC charging hardware are among the technology enablers Xpeng is promising for arrival soon.

The automaker is buying L2 charging hardware and having dealerships implement community charging stations.

EV shoppers will have a common language for comparison-shopping EVs, with the endorsement of Chargeway’s interface by the NADA and its use in dealership sites nationwide.

Ford doesn't own or run a fast-charging network, but it's trying to make the experience more consistent with some of its own quality control.
