If you have an electric vehicle you will soon be able to charge it up to four times faster with the Australian release of the world’s first two-in-one solar inverter and EV charger. Rob Fraser tells us more
SolarEdge, a smart energy company says its EV charging solar inverter enables faster charging through its solar boost mode, which allows simultaneous charging from both grid and solar power.
Having the solar boost mode option effectively reduces the typical charging times by 4. Charging using the solar-only option also had the added benefit of giving users more energy independence, enabling them to reduce power bills.
The two-in-one charger and inverter is compatible with multiple EVs and integrates with the SolarEdge monitoring system, allowing users to control and track charging status and set charging schedules to take advantage of off-peak rates, all at the touch of their smart device.
Technology is advancing at a rapid pace.
