Enel and ENI reach Italian electric vehicle charging station deal

Italian utility Enel has reached an agreement with ENI, the Italian oil and gas group, to boost the presence of electric vehicle charging facilities at petrol stations. Enel has already created a fast vehicle charging station that uses 43kW alternating current, providing a charge of up to 80% in about 30 minutes. The first charging stations will be delivered by March 2013 across ENI's 4,700 petrol stations.

  • Electric road built in Sweden
    October 25, 2017
    An innovative electric road concept has been developed in Sweden by researchers at Lund University.. The new system features a conductive rail on the road surface, which is inactive until an EV passes over the top. The EV can be charged with up to 160kW by the rail, with the system offering an efficiency claimed to be as high as 97%. The system could allow EVs to feature smaller, lower cost batteries as range extension would be delivered by the charging system instead.
