Comment on BYD announces charging tech that’s twice as fast as Tesla’s
Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 1 week agoYeah, batteries.
The energy density of a capacitor is absolutely awful.

Ok, so what if you have basically another car battery there and discharge it at 10C or whatever? That should help with the fast charging of EVs, but it wouldn’t have a very long life span. Alternatively, you could have many batteries and discharge them at some reasonable rate. The problem is, you would need a lot of space for that. Maybe capacitors would take even more, IDK.

I don’t think the footprint of a battery bank a few times the size of a car pack would be too bad, probably the equivalent of a parking space.
