Aerodynamics are key to electric vehicle (EV) efficiency and driving range. The basic principle is simple; the lower the coefficient of drag (cD), the further you can travel per charge. The slickest cars follow nature. A bird that’s shaped like a brick cannot fly. Unfortunately, electric ...
Home solar systems can also be configured to send a "start charging" command to a car when more sun is available than can be absorbed by other loads in the home, and the Type2 standard supports variable charge current from 5 ~ 32A single phase, with the car reducing current wi...
But even with less-than-ideal sun hours, the energy yielded can make a significant difference to EV charging. Mercedes says the solar-paint charge could provide 100% of needed energy for an average daily drive of 32 miles in sun-drenched Los Angeles. In much less sunny conditions -- s...
