Abstract
As the adoption of plug-in electric vehicle continues to grow, so does the development of a network of fast charging stations to support long-distance travel and provide alternatives to residential and workplace charging. Fast charging, however, could be significantly more expensive than residential/workplace charging, mainly due to high power consumption and low utilization. Here we review current cost of electricity for electric vehicle fast charging in the United States and we assess opportunitites to use batteries or PV panels to reduce it.
