Solar PV

Solar panel electricity systems, also known as photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun's energy using photovoltaic cells. These cells don't need direct sunlight to work – they can still generate some electricity on a cloudy day.

Electric Vehicle Charging

The EV charging fundamentals

There are four basic ways to charge an EV:

  • Mode 1 charging: This system is the simplest, and uses standard socket outlets not exceeding 16A (single or three phase). This system is no longer considered a ‘mainstream charging technology’, however, since it is not regarded as sufficiently safe.

  • Mode 2 charging: Similar to Mode 1, in that it uses an AC connection, providing charging currents of 10A or less. Added to it is a control pilot function and system of protection against electric shock. Presently considered to be the ‘entry level’ charging solution for single phase domestic applications.

  • Mode 3 charging: Uses a dedicated charger unit, ‘electric vehicle supply equipment’ (EVSE), with control and monitoring as well as an AC charge supply to the vehicle. These usually have a larger charging capacity and may sometimes require a 3 phase supply.

  • Mode 4 charging: Similar to Mode 3 charging, the difference being that the EVSE provides a DC charge current to the vehicle via a tethered cable. Such EVSEs are normally considerably more complex and expensive, and are thus bigger and usually floor-mounted. They can, however, offer a fundamental attraction for EV owners – more rapid charging. As such, they’re more likely to be found in specific car charging points at service stations, public car parks, large companies etc.
