Practical EV-charging guides plus the latest Bemis E-V Charge news and trade-show updates.
Installing a charging station at a factory is a different decision from fitting a wallbox at home. The site already has a transformer, a power factor correction panel and a production load that changes by the hour. A correct installation sits on top of those three facts.
A DC charging unit of the same power can come in two different enclosures: one mounted on a wall, one standing on its own pedestal. The difference is not electrical but on site: where you mount it and how the car pulls up decide it.
A charger is not equipment you install and forget. Its only moving part is the connector, and that is where wear begins. A regular checklist catches a fault at the desk instead of on site.
On a DC charging station the part that wears out most is not the unit itself but the cable the vehicle plugs into. The right CCS2 cable comes down to three questions: how many amps the unit outputs, how long the cable should be and how the end will be terminated.
The most useful and least known feature of a portable charger is the current setting. You decide, step by step, how much current the unit draws — which is why the same unit works on a weak household socket and on a three-phase industrial socket alike.
There is power at home and there is a socket — but the socket is not where the car parks. The answer is usually not extending the cable, but choosing a unit with the right cable length from the start.
V2L takes power from your car's battery, C2L from the charger on the wall. That is the whole difference in one sentence, but the consequences are very different: C2L never reduces your range and it works even when your car has no V2L.
Three things decide a V2L adapter: your car's brand (the vehicle-side connector follows it), how many sockets you want, and whether you will use it with a cable. Settling them in order prevents buying the wrong product.
In a shared car park the technical part is easy; the real issue is collection. Who spent how much, who is authorised, who will collect the money? A prepaid balance solves this from the start: the user charges only up to the balance loaded onto their card.
A wallbox is the AC charger mounted on the wall to charge an electric car safely and quickly at home, in a shared car park or at work. How it differs from a socket, power selection, the tethered/socketed decision and the installation steps are all in this guide.
The first question when choosing power is not the device but the car: how many kW does the onboard charger accept? Then the installation: single-phase or three-phase, how many amps? This guide settles the 7.4 / 11 / 22 kW decision with tables.

What is a portable (mobile) charger that you plug into a socket to charge your car, who is it for and what determines its price? We explain the Bemis portable charging models with their carrying cases, and how to choose, in plain language.
Cars with V2L are becoming more common. We have gathered the verified 2026 list of V2L-capable models sold in Türkiye — Hyundai Ioniq 5/6, Kia EV6/EV9, Togg T10F, MG, BYD, KGM (Ssangyong) Torres EVX and Skywell — how many kW they deliver, and the right V2L adapter for your car, all in one article.
There are three ways to charge your electric car at home: an ordinary household socket (the slowest), a portable charger and a wall-mounted charger (a wallbox). In this guide we answer the most common questions — "how do I charge my car", "can I use an ordinary socket", "can I fit it myself" — in everyday language.
You can charge your car from the solar panels on your roof: in an on-grid system the panels feed the home's distribution board, and the board feeds the charger. Find a worked example of how many panels you need, and the adjustable-current charger features that suit solar best, in this guide.
Charging at home is safe with the right equipment and a sound installation. The limits of charging from an ordinary socket, the risks of extension cables, the residual current device and why a wallbox is the safest route are all in this guide.
