EVSE questions

A major player in the EVSE market has kindly consented to provide some technical training for the electrical installation tutors at a training centre where I often tutor part-time. I imagine it is not entirely motivated by altruistic considerations but at least it gives an opportunity for the tutors and myself to get some kind of grasp on the various products on offer and where this particular manufacturer sees the direction of travel for EVSE. I am already aware that the company is moving away from products that rely on the installation of earth electrodes in PME situations and are placing considerable focus on load management. Is there any particular question that you would ask them given the opportunity?

  • That Jon is why the batteries are so expensive. They are deep discharge, high discharge rate just like a fork truck. I would be paying more, using more resources and carrying a considerably heavier battery to reduce something that is not a problem. It sounds like very odd thinking to me. I would much prefer that the roads were not full of jams, caused by loads of unphased traffic lights, bus lanes, cycle lanes, and other jam reducing efforts for privileged groups who pay no vehicle taxes.
