As a LEZ (Low Emission Zone), Brussels is no longer accessible to the most polluting vehicles.
Depending on the charging station used and the capacity of the electric car battery, the charging time can vary from 10 hours to half an hour. In the future, it may be just a few minutes!
Charging modes define the way in which the electric car and the charging infrastructure communicate. There are several recharging modes depending on the recharging power.
The consumption of electric cars depends on the model and the manufacturer. Most of the electric vehicles can cover up to 100 kilometres with 15 kWh.

There are currently more than 20 million vehicles in the world running on natural gas. This gas, which is called CNG, is the same as the gas used to heat our houses.
A tonne of carbon dioxide is a return trip between Paris and New York by plane. In terms of volume, this represents a cube the size of a three-storey building, or 8.20 metres in edge length.
Based on data, you can easily calculate how much it costs to recharge the battery on your electric bike. Here’s an explanation.
Installing a charging station for electric vehicles at home has several advantages. However, it should take technical constraints into account.
Green gas is produced through the transformation of organic matter by bacteria. Unlike natural gas, it is not a fossil fuel, but a renewable energy.
The type of terminal and its connection are crucial in maximising the charging speed of your electric vehicle. But there are other decisive factors in achieving full charging power at home.
Electric cars are often presented as “non-polluting” or “zero emission” vehicles. But they are not necessarily less polluting than conventional vehicles!
There are three main groups of electric vehicles: fully electric, standard hybrids and rechargeable hybrids.
An electric charging station consumes a great deal of energy. Dynamic load balancing allows you to install charging stations without having to increase the power of your connection.
Despite its advantages, the use of hydrogen in cars involves technical challenges and raises questions about efficiency, range, and safety. What's more, very few service stations offer hydrogen.
Smart charging systems make it possible to control and optimize the recharging of electric vehicle batteries. A good plan for managing the balance of the electricity network and for recharging your vehicle at a lower cost!
Hydrogen is one of the so-called alternative gases, which are either low-carbon or of totally renewable origin. As gases, they are therefore easily storable!
To install charging points in an apartment building, a collective solution needs to be envisaged. But how can the consumption costs be shared out when all users have the same meter?
