That was the first product released >10 years ago at my previous job [1]. The idea did not quite catch on, though, and the product was repurposed (successfully) as an OEM charger. There is not a lot of power available on street lamps and charging at 3.6kW is kind of slow. Consider that with almost the same hardware (especially the same expensive parts) and three-phase current, 22kW are possible.

It might turn out differently in the US, but it is hardly a new idea.

3.6 kW gives between 10 and 20 km of range per hour of charging depending on the vehicle you have. This is plenty fast enough for overnight charging.

Yes I've never bothered with a higher output for my own home charger, a standard outlet is plenty if you're parked every night
