It allows charging two cars simultaneously.
The charging station is manufactured by the Finnish company ENSTO, one of the market leaders in such systems. This station is available to everyone, regardless of the car manufacturer.
The station itself is compact in size. It looks like a stylish stainless steel pillar. The ENSTO EVC charging station is about 1.5 meters high. Currently, access can be obtained using a special card (issued at the dealership), and later access will work via a GSM terminal. That is, the customer sends an SMS message to a special number and opens the door to access the connectors. Opening the protective door, you can see two connectors. One of them is a regular 220 V socket with grounding. The second is specialized for electric vehicles. Charging of the electric vehicle starts after the charging cable is connected and the protective door is closed. The charging current of this station reaches 16 A. For example, the Mitsubishi iMiEV fully charges its battery in 6 hours. From a regular household outlet, charging will take up to 10 hours.
If you don't have a specialized cable, you can borrow it at the dealership. We remind you that there is no need to pay for using the service.
Today, there are 4 charging stations for electric vehicles in the capital of Ukraine. In addition to the new one we just talked about, there is also one near the office of "Trade House-NIKO" and two at gas stations of two Ukrainian networks.
