EV Recharging Technology Hits Market.
Battelle has licensed technology developed at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory that will help electric car drivers charge their rides at times of lowest cost and stress on the electric grid as smart grid capabilities become more available." The California automaker ZAP "will market Smart Charger Controller technology in the United States, Korea and, through a joint venture, China." The technology will allow "owners of electric cars [to] set the time they want the battery to be fully charged. Technology that relies on low-range wireless will communicate with the power grid, if a local utility has that communication function available, and determine the best time to recharge vehicles."
