Ultra-fast charging station (DC): the game-changing technology

Ultra-fast charging station (DC): the game-changing technology

Among our clients

Charge a battery in the time it takes to drink coffee.

In the world of electric vehicles, time is the most precious resource. If at a regular home station we are used to charging the vehicle overnight (about 6-8 hours), in the world of ultra-fast charging (DC), the rules change completely. Here we are talking about minutes, not hours.

But what exactly does this mean? Is it possible to install such a stand at home? And who is it really suitable for? The experts of Stones Holdings Let's put the concepts in order.


What is the difference between normal position (AC) and ultra-fast (DC)?

To understand the revolution, you need to understand how charging works:

  1. Normal home/public position (AC): The electricity comes from the grid as alternating current (AC). The vehicle's internal charger (the converter) converts it to direct current (DC) to feed it into the battery. The vehicle's internal charger is limited in its capacity (usually up to 11kW or 22kW), so charging is relatively slow.
  2. Ultra-fast position (DC): Here, the station itself is the monster. It converts the electricity from AC to DC inside the station (and not in the vehicle), and delivers a huge current directly to the battery, "bypassing" the limitations of the vehicle's internal charger.
    • Suppliers: Starting from 50kW and reaching up to 350kW and more.
    • Charging time: From 10% to 80% battery in just 15 to 30 minutes (depending on vehicle).

The most common question: "Can I install an ultra-fast stand at home?""

Many customers contact us asking to install a "fast charger" at home so they don't have to wait all night. The honest answer is: Probably not, and you shouldn't either.

why?

  1. Electrical infrastructure: A DC station requires industrial electrical infrastructure (high voltage and enormous current) that does not exist in normal residential neighborhoods. Such a connection requires a private transformer with the electric company.
  2. Crazy cost: The price of a basic DC station starts at tens of thousands of shekels and can reach hundreds of thousands (compared to a home station that costs a few thousand).
  3. Battery health: Ultra-fast charging on a daily basis wears out the battery faster. Manufacturers recommend using it only on the road, and at home use the healthier slow charging (AC) for the car.

The solution for the home: A three-phase AC station (22kW) is the fastest possible and recommended solution for the home, and we also install it professionally.


So who is installing an ultra-fast station suitable for? (Our business service)

DC stations are an ideal solution for the business and commercial sector, where a high turnover of vehicles is required:

  • Fleets and shipping companies: Trucks and commercial vehicles that need to get back to work quickly.
  • Gas stations and convenience stores: Premium service for customers who stop for a short time.
  • Office buildings and shopping malls: Attracting customers who own luxury vehicles.
  • Public parking lots: Paid fast charging service.

Avni Holdings' expertise in heavy infrastructure

Installing a DC substation is a complex engineering project, completely different from a home installation. It requires excavation, laying cables as thick as an arm, erecting industrial electrical panels, and sometimes constructing a substation (pref).

At "Avni Holdings" we provide a complete package for projects such as:

  • Engineering design: Working closely with electrical engineers to plan loads.
  • Earthworks and infrastructure: Excavation, concrete pouring for parking surfaces and underground piping.
  • Installation and connection: Working with the most advanced heavy duty equipment.
  • Safety: Compliance with the most stringent standards of the Ministry of Energy and the Fire Authority.
