This help sheet provides information on how battery energy storage systems can support electric vehicle (EV) fast charging infrastructure. . The objective of the project was to create and demonstrate an extreme fast charging (XFC) station that operates at a combined scale exceeding 1 MW while mitigating grid impact with smart charging algorithms and a local energy storage system (ESS). It is an informative resource that may help states, communities, and other stakeholders plan for EV infrastructure deployment, but it is not intended to be used. . storage system (BESS) and solar generation system in an extreme fast charging station (XFCS) to reduce the annualized total cost.
