Compatibility Issues: A Shared Industry Challenge
EV charging software provider Driivz conducted a survey across North America and Europe, revealing that vehicle-to-charger compatibility issues accounted for 45% of charging failures—the top cause. The study involved 300 ...
Experience and feedback from my partners suggest that many Charge Point Operators (CPOs) are unknowingly leaving money on the table. Despite securing high-capacity grid connections and investing in premium distributed charging systems, many still find their site’s actual...
A 320kW sticker on your charger doesn’t guarantee 320kW of billable energy. In my experience working with North American fleet operators and CPOs, the biggest gap in profitability isn’t electricity costs—it’s Stranded Capacity.
Traditional "All-in-One" chargers often loc...
With the European Council’s formal adoption of the revised Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) in February 2026 and its official publication in March, the European electric vehicle (EV) charging landscape has reached a pivotal milestone. This update is more than a technical iteration; it repres...
Introduction: The Connector War Is Nearing Its End
Over the past decade, the North American EV charging industry has operated in a fragmented, multi-standard environment. CCS1, CHAdeMO, and Tesla’s proprietary connector evolved in parallel, creating a divided infrastru...
IP54 vs IP65? How to choose Ingress Protection of home ev charger?
What is IP ratings?
IP ratings, or Ingress Protection ratings, serve as a measure of a device's resistance to the infiltration of external elements, including dust, dirt, and moisture. Developed by ...
If you are planning to install a Level 2 charging station in the United States—whether for your home or a large-scale commercial fleet—you’ve likely encountered a bowl of "alphabet soup": ETL, Energy Star, and CSA.
Choosing the right hardware isn't just about the plug ty...
When EV drivers talk about charging, “speed” is always the headline. But the real technical parameter behind fast charging is far more than just a power rating. Voltage is what ultimately defines the upper limit of charging efficiency, influences long-term battery health, and even shapes f...
As electric vehicles continue to gain global momentum, charging infrastructure has become a critical backbone supporting the transition to electric mobility.
Unlike indoor equipment, however, most EV chargers operate outdoors—often exposed to harsh and unpredictable we...
