Plans for an ultra-fast network of EV charging stations in Europe will utilize the CCS combo cord standard favored by European and American automakers.

We reported (http://plugincars.com/350-kilowatt-ultra-fast-charging-future-ev-refueling-132296.html) in October that an alliance of automakers launched a network of 25 “ultra-fast” public EV charging stations in Europe—to be used by buses and trucks at first and then eventually by drivers of passenger vehicles. The news stood out from other promises about EV charging infrastructure because the core idea was to offer charging outputs of “up to 350 kilowatts.” That would mean charging at much faster times than today’s 50-kW CHAdeMO public chargers or even Tesla’s 120-kW Superchargers, thus giving EV owners the ability to add 300 kilometers (or 190 miles) of range in about 20 minutes.
