And bringing a few zillions Watts to the charging station has already been solved, technically.<p>If a fast-fast charging station takes 15 minutes and has 360 kW :<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cnet.com&#x2F;roadshow&#x2F;news&#x2F;fastest-ev-charging-station-full-battery&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cnet.com&#x2F;roadshow&#x2F;news&#x2F;fastest-ev-charging-stati...</a><p>to charge in 5 minutes it will take around 1000 kW for each column, a 4 vehicle one will need 4000 kW, which compares to what, 500-1000 houses?<p>BTW I doubt that current batteries will like to be charged this way.
