Eco Factor: Electric car charger reduces battery charging time.
GE has unveiled a new smart-grid-ready electric car charger in San Francisco. Dubbed, WattStation, the charger has been designed in part by Yves Behar and is intended to become a new icon for electric car driver and hopefully encourage others to adopt a green ride as well.
The company claims that the WattStation decreases electric vehicle charging time from 12-18 hours to just four to eight hours. GE WattStation will be commercially available globally in 2011. The company will also unveil a specialized home version of the charger later this year.
