The current status of charging in the Netherlands (Summer 2011)

3 phase to single phase converter makes little sense, instead charging with DC may better to avoid additional conversion. Best solution a new PEM with 3 smaller charger of 24A = 1-phase 75A or 3-phase 24A(32A)

Are you ready to give up the warranty. When expires the car warranty, when the akku, How much is a new Akku?

Today the first points were opened in Middelburg (my hometown)! A quick picture: Je elektrische auto laden? Het kan vanaf heden in #Middelburg! on Twitpic

If you look at the points of E-Laad you'll notice them popping up everywhere: Waar vind je onze oplaadpunten?

I just got a update from E-Laad, on December 8th they will open the 1000st public charging station in the Netherlands! Add the ~275 from Amsterdam and we are going pretty fast for such a tiny country

(Psst, these charging stations are ALL equipped with 3-phase (3x16A) 11kW output!)

Yesterday I tested the Tesla Roadster at the 1.000th public charging station. Nothing can go wrong when the cameras are running next week!

There are a lot of questions about the difference in kW's. We hope to convince OEM's to equip their EV's with 3-phase chargers.

How did you hook up to the Type 2 connector? You have this cable as well? http://zooi.widodh.nl/ev/tech/chargi...esla-cable.jpg

Yes, but not from EV-box. I've got it from Chargepoint.

I just found an article on a dutch website. Next year we'll have 5.000 charging stations throughout the country and we should have a 100 50kW CHAdeMO chargers.

Our tiny country is just 350km wide and 450km 'high', so that is a nice density!
