A fully electric vehicle or EV is one that runs completely on
rechargeable batteries, where the battery power replaces
traditional gas power. Some EV only brands gaining popularity are
Tesla and Fisker, with the global adoption of this more eco friendly
option on the rise. Credited name brands such as BMW, Audi,
Honda, and Nissan are also releasing new models with this fully
electric option.
Seeing that EV’s
can only run if they
are charged, the
need or even
possibility to stop at
a GAS station to
fuel up disappears.
New electric
charging stations
are popping up all
over the country so
EV owners are able
to travel and fill up
their charge just as
they would a gaspowered vehicle.

As some vehicles may take longer than others to fill up, Tesla is one
company with many varying options. The rate of charge on a battery
is different for different wall outlets. A Tesla model S charging
connected to a standard 110V/12A three-prong wall outlet is given a
whopping 3 miles of range per charging hour. But from a
supercharger Tesla charging station, a Model S can get a 170-mile
range charge in just under 30 minutes.
CONDUCTION FUNCTION
The electric car may look to
be the future of efficiency and
saving the worlds repository of
fossil fuels, but how on earth
could it possibly get easier?
This is a question HEVO Power
has set to answer using
conduction energy transfer
charging for electric vehicles.
Simply put, it is wireless energy
transfer charging.

HEVO’s way of charging
an EV is very simple,
where you park your car
over the wireless source
which looks like a man
hole cover. The only
components necessary
for the consumer are the
receiver attached under
your EV and the app
where your phone does
the rest of the work. The
app even has parking
assistance to ensure
optimal parking for the
most efficient charge.

Although the charging power is at
a meager Level 2 power output of
240V/ 24A and gives a 17-mile
range per charging hour, the
technology has much room to
advance in the future. To give a
perspective, that power is similar
to the output necessary for
running a washing machine.

HEVO IN ACTION
With companies like HEVO Power that are using modern day
technological advances and common physics like conduction
energy transfer, I have learned the future is looking to be a much
more efficient place. See for yourself…
