Re:Start says its new system compares favorably with existing analogues in speed and ease of movement. It is assumed that the module will only take six minutes to replenish the battery of an “empty” electric car for 20 kilometers. This should be enough to get to the nearest charging station and fully replenish your energy supply there.
“Our system was built from the ground up to provide optimal size and weight, using our proprietary battery and unique charger design. The modular battery system allows the platform to scale to meet the charging needs of any vehicle,” said Re:Start founder Zhiduo (Duo) Zhang.
Testing of automotive “power banks” will begin by the end of 2022 in the Australian state of Victoria.
In the future, Re:Start will offer a regular or on-demand charging service for users who do not have the opportunity to install a charging system at home or want to connect to charging from time to time in places with insufficiently developed infrastructure. Such mobile “chargers” can be called through a mobile application. They will be able to provide from 50 to 100 km of power reserve.
