Inkqubo yokutshaja ye-EV ihambisa amandla ukusuka kwigridi yamandla ukuya kwibhetri ye-EV, kungakhathaliseki ukuba usebenzisa i-AC ukutshaja ekhaya okanye i-DC yokutshaja ngokukhawuleza kwindawo yokuthenga kunye nohola wendlela. Ihambisa amandla ukusuka kumnatha wamandla ukuya kwibhetri ukuze igcinwe. Ngenxa yokuba kuphela amandla e-DC anokugcinwa ebhetrini, amandla e-AC akakwazi ukuhanjiswa ngokuthe ngqo kwibhetri, kufuneka aguqulwe abe ngamandla eDC yitshaja ekwibhodi.
Abantu abaninzi banexhala lokuba ukutshaja kombane oPhezulu kuya kuba ngumceli mngeni omkhulu kwigridi yamandla okanye izinga eliphantsi lokusetyenziswa kwetshaja ekhawulezayo yeDC. Kodwa kunye netekhnoloji ephuhlayo kunye nee-EV ezininzi ngakumbi endleleni, ukutshaja ngokukhawuleza kuya kuba yimfuno engqongqo kakhulu.
Umgangatho wokutshaja unokwahlulwa ube yimigangatho ye-5, eyi-CHAdeMO (eJapan), i-GB / T (eChina), i-CCS1 (i-US) , i-CCS2 (i-EU) kunye ne-Tesla. Apho, i-protocol yonxibelelwano phakathi kwe-BMS kunye neTshaja azifani, i-CHAdeMO kunye ne-GB/T zamkelwa i-CAN commutation protocol; i-CCS1 kunye ne-CCS2 zamkelwe imigaqo yonxibelelwano ye-PLC. Ke kubuhlungu kumsebenzisi, ilizwe lakhe elinazo zonke iintlobo zemigangatho yokutshaja ii-EVs, onokuthi angafumani izikhululo zokutshaja zeDC ezifanelekileyo. Kwimarike, i-ABB yenzelwe iitshaja zeDC zidibanise imigangatho emibini yokutshaja, ezisombulula iindawo zengxaki.
Ngokubanzi, ukutshaja okukhawulezayo kwe-DC ayikokutshaja ibhetri ngokupheleleyo kwimizuzu embalwa, kodwa kukutshaja imoto ngombono wokuqhuba ngexesha elifutshane, nto leyo esondela kumkhwa wokuqhuba imoto yepetroli. Kwangaxeshanye, inemfuno ephezulu yokhuseleko lwebhetri.
