🔋 What does it take to charge a heavy-duty electric truck that’s 10x more powerful than your car? Spoiler: It’s not your average #EVcharging station. Mike Englhard, Terawatt's Chief Development Officer, recently sat down with Scaling Climate Tech to explore the world of high-powered electric truck charging. With batteries 10x larger than passenger EVs, these trucks need megawatt-level power—the kind of energy a stadium requires—and multi-million dollar investments for each charging station. Some highlights from the conversation: 🔹 Navigating complex permitting for a new asset class 🔹 Managing supply chain risks with key electric components facing long lead times 🔹 Tackling the interconnection bottleneck when a single site can be much larger than the electric capacity of the town 🔹 Finding the right balance between rapid site deployment while not outpacing truck electrification 🔹 Ensuring site readiness for charging technology innovation, specifically the emerging fast charging standard for trucks (Megawatt Charging System) 🎧 Tune in to understand what it takes to electrify the trucking industry and build the infrastructure needed for large-scale adoption. - Apple: https://lnkd.in/ghvhPzMj - Spotify: https://lnkd.in/gba2k68t
