Assignment question:
Q1. What are the electricity power requirements for a charging station for lorries with 10 vehicle chargers?
Q2. How long is the time taken to charge the battery of lorry in full? What is the evidence in numbers? Considering the battery of an electric lorry is larger than the battery of a civilian electric vehicle (for example tesla model s). and finally how many vehicles can be charged per day from this station? Explain with equations.
Q3. From the results in Q2, Calculate the cost of power consumption, use an excel spreadsheet or explain with equations for this purpose
Q4. How are these stations going to be powered? What are the potential power sources? Using the national grid lines or independent power generators for each station etc.? Propose 5 options and comprehensively Compare between the most suitable 2 powersources and define the comparison criterea.
Q5. Can this charging station provide fast-charging services? What are the requirements in order to do so?
Q6. What are the limitations of megacharging ? what is a realistic approach with charging lorries?
