Three V3 superchargers open at a stretch!
Since May 2021, a new spot with a high output of 250 kW with a maximum output of 250 kW called "V3" has been opened one after another in "Super Charger", a rapid charging infrastructure that Tesla has independently maintained.
There are three recently opened V3 superchargers:
Iga Super Charger
Installation group: 4 (V3) Address: 2756-104 Seimeiji Temple, Iga City, Mie Prefecture
Four locations are installed in the hotel parking lot.The plug is the J1772 standard adjacent, and there are four Yuasa Stand authentication wall connectors (ordinary chargers).
Matsudo Super Charger
Installation group: 4 (V3) Address: 2-8-1 Yagasaki, Matsudo City, Chiba Prefecture (Terrace Mall Matsudo) ● Tesla official website ● EVSMART information page
Four units are installed in the shopping mall parking lot.It seems to be a bit difficult to reach, and there was an article on Teskas's site, which sends out Tesla information, "How to access and note the Tesla Super Charger Matsudo."In addition, two rapid chargers of the Chademo standard that can be used for free (up to 30 minutes at a time) are installed in the rooftop parking lot of the same facility.* The opening photo is reprinted from Tescas's website.
Hakodate Super Charger
Installation group: 4 units (V3) Address: 85-1 Ishikawa -cho, Hakodate -shi, Hokkaido (Hakodate Tsutaya Bookstore) ● Official site ● EVSMART Information Page
Four parking lots at Tsutaya Bookstore, which have shops such as Starbucks, Cardi, and North Face.There is also a 24 -hour Famima, so it will be easy to spend time during charging.This is the first supercharger in Hokkaido.
The ideal image of quick charging that supercharger teaches
Just in case, we will organize the basic knowledge.A supercharger is a fast charging equipment exclusively for Tesla cars.The plug shape is also different from the Chodemo standard, so only the Tesla car can be charged.Needless to say, Tesla is being set up independently all over the world for its own EV users.
With the opening of the three places introduced this time, 31 superchargers have already been opened in Japan.On the official website of Tesla, nine places, including "Daikanyama", "KANAZAWA" and "KOBE", are "Coming Soon".It is rumored that Daikanyama Supercharger has four high -power V3, and will soon open.
There are also cases where it is opened suddenly without being listed in "COMING SOON".In any case, there is no doubt that the Tesla supercharger network is steadily enriching with the spread of model 3, which is strongly sold due to a significant price reduction.
Tesla Super Chargers have several features that the public charging infrastructure of the Chodemo standard should be scored.For those who are not yet familiar with electric vehicles and charging, let's check again.
Most of them are installed in the rapid charging spots in Japan in Japan.There are two or three places in several places, such as the urban highway service area, but there are no rapid charging spots installed in multiple units "more and more".
However, there are multiple superchargers default around the world, and in Japan, the Grand Hyatt Tokyo parking lot in Roppongi, Tokyo, and two terrace mall Shonan parking in Fujisawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture.Other than the charging of Tokyo, 4 to 8 superchargers are installed.
In principle, the charging time of the Chademo's public speed is within 30 minutes at a time.But Tesla Super Charger has no such time limit.
Conversely, if the charging is stopped due to the full charge, the plug is not removed, and the car is parked in the charging space, 50 yen per minute and every minute when the supercharger is full.You will be charged a 100 yen excess fee.
The rapid charger of Chademo has been maintained at a maximum of 50 kW.There are many 40kW or 44kW vessels on highway facilities, and there are many so -called "medium -speed chargers", such as 20kW and 30kW in facilities along general roads.
The Tesla Super Charger has a nominal output of the most common type of charger.Up to 72kW output even for a small charger called an urban type.And the "V3" installed in these three places can be charged with a high output of up to 250 kW.
However, no matter how much Tesla car is, it cannot always be charged quickly with the maximum output.Only model 3 (model Y has not been introduced in Japan) that supports 250kW charging.Nevertheless, charging at a speed of 70kW or 100kW is a great convenience for electric vehicles equipped with large -capacity batteries.We have introduced that there is no time limit for supercharger, but in practical use, in most cases, it can be charged smoothly to 80 % or more in SOC (battery level) in most cases.
In the case of a chademo, the maximum output is always output even if it is up to 50 kW, so it can be charged in about 30 minutes.No matter how much an EV equipped with a large -capacity battery, only the electricity cost is 5 km / kwh, only the power of running 100 km can be charged.If this is charged with a maximum of 120kW supercharger for 30 minutes, even if it is estimated to be about 70 % of the full output, it can charge "120kWh x 30 minutes x 70 % = 42kWh" and a 210km run for 5km / kwh.
When using Japanese public charging infrastructure, authentication and billing on the EMP network are common.When charging, the charging card in linked with the EMP network issued by each car manufacturer will be authenticated by holding it over the certification or the other will start charging.In addition, the current situation is "somewhat troublesome", such as the method of this method differs depending on the charger.
In the case of Tesla, all Tesla cars are connected online, and when charging with a supercharger, the plug is inserted and charging starts.Authentication and billing are performed with the so -called "plug and charge (PNC)", and it is settled with a credit card registered in advance.Moreover, the cables and plugs are light and easy to handle.The charging port position of the Tesla car is unified, so the cable is short and the facility looks smart.
I want the Japanese mechanism to evolve soon
A Japanese style charging style such as "up to 50kW" and "30 minutes each time" was set, and it spread in the early 2010s.At that time, the rules were formulated based on the Nissan Leaf, Mitsubishi I-MIEV, which was a pioneer in the world, and the Nissan Leaf with a large battery capacity of 24 kWh, which had a high sales volume.In the first place, it was 24kWh for full charge, so if you charge it for 30 minutes for 30 minutes, you could charge up to 80 % or more.There was not much popularity, so there was no problem with one in one place.
However, the number of vehicles for electric vehicles has increased and the battery capacity has also increased.The more you know the Tesla Super Charger, the more you can see the shortage of rapid charging infrastructure in Japan.
E-Mobility Power, which inherited the construction of public charging infrastructure in Japan from NCS, and Nissan, which launched new Aria, has stated that "motivation" has been announced to promote high-output and multiple quick charging infrastructure.It is difficult to convey the news of specific spots and expansion.
In the first place, the performance and ease of use of charging infrastructure can be considered as part of the performance of electric vehicles.That's why Tesla has a supercharger network in -house.Looking at the current situation in Japan in recent years, it is wrapped in resignation, such as "Is it because Nissan is a solitary struggle because Japanese charging infrastructure does not evolve?"It seems that I feel like "I don't like Tesla too."
Opened three superchargers at once!I would like to pray for the evolution of Japan's rapid charging infrastructure in Japan.
