AC Chargers vs. DC Chargers: What’s the Difference?

When choosing EV charging solutions, it’s essential to understand the difference between AC (Alternating Current) and DC (Direct Current) chargers. Both serve critical roles in EV charging infrastructure but differ in speed, cost, and application.

AC Chargers are ideal for everyday use, offering efficient charging at lower power levels, while DC Chargers are best for rapid charging in high-traffic or time-sensitive scenarios.

Understanding the Difference Between AC and DC Charging

This distinction is crucial as AC and DC chargers differ significantly in their charging speeds, with DC chargers offering faster charging at a higher cost. No matter whether an EV uses an AC or DC charging station, the car’s battery will still always store DC energy.

DC Charging Solutions

DC charging stations can significantly impact EV batteries, offering quicker charging times but potentially affecting battery performance and durability compared to AC power.

AC Charging Solutions

AC chargers, with their cost-effectiveness and easier installation and maintenance, make them an unbeatable option for many businesses that experience longer customer dwell time.

AC Chargers are perfect for businesses providing extended parking, while DC Chargers are suited for high-turnover locations needing quick charge times.

Perfect Fit for Multiple Use Cases

AC Charging is ideally suited for locations where vehicles are parked for two hours or more. This makes them perfect for:

  • Hotels and resorts

    Hotels and resorts looking to attract eco-conscious travellers can enhance their offerings by installing EV charging stations. Whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, your guests will appreciate the added convenience.

  • Shopping and retail centres

    For retail businesses and shopping centres, offering EV charging stations is a great way to attract more visitors. EV drivers are more likely to visit a location that offers charging, increasing foot traffic and customer spending.

  • Office buildings and corporate campuses

    Egestas odio dis arcu quis vestibulum sed sed egestas. Netus nec fermentum egestas auctor non ut non elit. Condimentum mi eros mattis sed proin nisl curabitur. Scelerisque in velit commodo pulvinar. Augue commodo duis purus egestas enim integer purus.

  • Public transport parking areas and hubs

    Nibh ipsum pharetra id habitant. Quam eros quam integer justo egestas natoque tortor sed sed. Felis iaculis pharetra est diam. Ac ut mauris vitae eu iaculis vel enim. Blandit lacus egestas augue libero. Morbi velit dictum massa.

  • Residential areas
