What is Level 2 Charging?
-
Question 2?
Some refer to this charging as Level 3 charging. In this case, the charger is a gas pump-sized machine. There is no single standard for fast-charging – Tesla has the Supercharger network; Nissan Leaf and other models get their quickest jolt using CHAdeMO, and another group uses SAE Combo. All of the above fast chargers deliver about 80% charge in 30 minutes.
-
Question 3?
EVSE Product Manufacturer: A company that manufactures charging station hardware. Note that this doesn’t necessarily mean they provide a network as well (see below).
-
Question 4?
Electric Vehicle Service Provider (EVSP): An EVSP provides the connectivity across a network of charging stations. Connecting to a central server, they manage the software, database, and communication interfaces that enable operation of the station.
