Extremely fast battery charging technology could make EVs an easier choice for more consumers

Electric vehicles will now be able to go from zero battery power to an 80% charge thanks to researchers at the University of Waterloo who made a breakthrough in lithium-ion battery design to enable this extremely fast 15-minute charging. It is much faster than the current industry standard of nearly an hour, even at fast-charging stations.
