Once the CHAdeMO adapter is real, a network of public CHAdeMO stations in cities will also help offset the need for SuperChargers to support city residents without home charging facilities.
Not necessarily, would you rather sit at a 50kW Chademo that you have to pay for to charge your car or a free 120kW supercharger?
I would rather pay to charge at a 50kW Chademo charger than wait for a 120kW supercharger that was ICEd.
The devil is in the details.
From the article, I gather that Nissan's stations will have both CHAdeMO and J1772 plugs. With all that power available, I'd hope the J1772 is at 80A!...
I get your point, but "help offset the need for" != "eliminate the need for". Clearly 120kW free is better than 50kW paid, but any additional charging opportunities in cities is good, and will help drive EV adoption (and, by extension, Tesla adoption) by city residents.Not necessarily, would you rather sit at a 50kW Chademo that you have to pay for to charge your car or a free 120kW supercharger?
Is there a CHAdeMO adaptor for my model S? I assume the car will work with the DC fast chargers... Right?
So, now that this appears to be happening, time to repeat previously asked but not really answered questions 1) will Tesla make a CCS adaptor? 2)will CCS or Chademo offer a quicker charging, in real world guise?
Here's another question: Since the patents are open, will a manufacturer offer a Tesla plug on a DCQC unit? In Europe, there are triple-standard ABB units offering CHAdeMO, CCS Combo and 43 kW AC. In North America it would make sense to replace the 43 kW AC by Tesla.
