Where will the electricity required by megawatt chargers come from , should people decide to buy these vehicles in large numbers
We will connect Donald Trump to a hot air power plant and have enough power for the next century.
Can a battery bank of a small car handle 1 MW of power charging? Scratching my head. At most 1 mw would maybe last for seconds and have to ramp down its power. When I try to look up fast charging of batteries, I haven't found a 100 kw-hr or less battery bank that can do this. The Tesla semi can absorb that much power, but has a 750 kw-hr battery bank spreading the power absorption over a much larger area of the battery bank. Scartching my head on this.
Awesome. Wow China really has left the west and the rest of the world in dust. USA can only dream of something like this.
