There is a big difference between Level 2 charging and the Tesla Superchargers.
Level 2 J1772 charging tops out under 20 kW, but most cars can only handle 7kW.
Most of the current DC fast charging points (ChargePoint etc) are 50 kW. Faster ones are coming, but most of the current cars (Bolt, Leaf, i3, Kia) can only accept less than 100 kW. Tesla Superchargers are currently 145 kW, but new installations are 250 kW. |
