CCS2 charging technology is a modern and efficient way to recharge your electric vehicle. The charging speeds that are available through this system are capable of rivaling gasoline refueling times. However, before we delve into how fast CCS2 charging can bring your vehicle to full charge, let's first understand what a CCS2 charger is.


What is CCS2 charging technology?


CCS2 is short for "Combined Charging System Protocol 2". It is a direct current (DC) fast-charging technology that is often used in electric vehicles around the world. The CCS2 charging system is approved as the standard charging technology for Europe and North America. It was initially developed by the German car industry to help increase the adoption of electric-powered cars. The system uses a single charging port with two pins (DC and AC) to allow for simultaneous ac and dc charging. The charging capacity can range from 50 kW for standard charging stations to 350 kW for high-power charging stations.


How does the CCS2 charging system work?


The CCS2 charging system uses both the Type 1 (J1772) and Type 2 (Mennekes) charging connectors. The system is compatible with both AC and DC currents, and it can be used for home and public charging stations. The charging cables used in the CCS2 system can transmit up to 1,000 volts of electric power, which effectively means that your vehicle can be charged with a high amount of electric power very quickly.


What determines how fast your car can be charged?


The charging speed of your electric car is determined by several factors, including the:


1. Power of your vehicle battery

2. Capacity of the charging station

3. Current battery state of the vehicle

4. Temperature of the battery

5. Charging status of the vehicle's software


Factors like the power of the vehicle battery and the capacity of the charging station directly affect the charging speed, while other external factors like temperature and charging status indirectly affect it.


Charging speeds that are available through CCS2 charging technology:


1. Standard charging - 50 kW


Standard charging using the CCS2 technology is the slowest of all the charging speeds available. With a 50 kW charging capacity, a vehicle with an average-sized battery of 50 kWh can take up to one hour to fully charge. However, some vehicles now feature larger batteries, like the VW ID.4, which boasts a larger 88 kWh battery, and can still be charged from 0 to 80% in around 35-40 minutes using a standard CCS2 charger.


2. Fast charging - 150 kW


Fast charging utilizing the CCS2 system is significantly faster than standard charging speed. With a 150 kW charging capacity, an electric vehicle can charge from 0 to 80% in around 30 minutes. Noteworthy vehicles that offer this charging capacity include the Audi e-Tron, Jaguar I-PACE, and the Porsche Taycan.


3. High-power charging - 350 kW


The fastest charging capacity available via the CCD2 system is high-power charging. With 350 kW charging capacity, you’ll be able to charge your electric car from 0 to 80% in just 15 minutes. The Porsche Taycan is one vehicle that offers this charging speed.


4. Adaptive Charging


A relatively new concept, adaptive charging technology is slowly making its way into the market. This technology is designed to optimize charging speeds based on factors such as the battery's temperature, type, or charging status. This speed-up approach is expected to better meet the charging requirements of modern electric vehicles.


5. V2X Charging


V2X charging technology is the next big thing in charging technology. It is designed to turn your vehicle charging station into a backup power source, storing energy that can be used at any point when there is a power cut or an energy shortage. Several companies such as Nissan have embraced V2X charging and are working on creating electricity grid solutions tailored to adjust and benefit from EV charging.


Conclusion:


In conclusion, the CCS2 technology enables electric vehicle owners to charge their vehicles quickly and efficiently. The charging speeds that are available via this technology ensure that vehicle owners can enjoy shorter charging times on long journeys. However, it's important to note that the charging speed you experience will depend on several factors, and it's always good to double-check the charging capacity of your vehicle's battery when choosing a charging station. With new charging technologies such as adaptive and V2X charging in the offing, expect the experience of charging your EV to continue improving.
