Podcast on Charging Stations in Europe

Fastned is a Dutch company that operates a network of over 100 EV charging stations in the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and Switzerland. A large majority of its stations are located at Dutch highway rest areas.

Roland van der Put is Fastned's Head of Charging Technology. In this podcast he explains why Scandinavia, the Netherlands, the UK, Germany and France are making such great process - and why other countries are not.

Van der Put displays the interaction between the charger, EV batteries and the onboard battery management system (BMS). Apparently every EV model provides a specific charging protocoll for the battery that decides on how fast the EV is being charged. He talks about AC/DC differences and how high occuring currents at charging points are being managed. And why induction charging and the concept of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) still lies far ahead.

The interview was recorded in July 2022. All information given in the podcast relates to this point in time.
