Jargon explained

DC

AC

  • AC stands for alternating current
  • The electricity that comes from the plugs in our home in AC
  • The batteries in EVs charge via DC, so the AC current is converted into DC by the on-board charger
  • This means charging will be slower with an AC charger than a DC charger




VS

AC

DC

  • DC stands for direct current
  • Many public fast cgarge points are DC
  • The current does not have to be converted by the on board charger
  • Therefore DC chargers can charge the car more quickly than AC chargers

kW

kW

  • kW is a measure of energy transfer
  • With EVs, the power of chargers are measured in kW
  • The higher the kW, the faster the charger will charge your car




VS

kWh

kWh

  • kWh is a measured of stored energy
  • With EVs, the size of the battery is measured in kWh
  • The higher the kWh, the larger the battery and, generally, the further the range
