Polar Power has developed an answer to so-called range anxiety, the nervous dread electric-vehicle drivers might have when they are driving to an unfamiliar area and are concerned about not being able to find a charger before their vehicle runs out of energy.
The Gardena, California-based manufacturer of direct-current power systems is taking advance orders for its upgraded mobile CHAdeMO charger, a portable generator of electric power that fits in the back of a pickup truck, said Shawn Severson, co-founder of Water Tower Research in St. Petersburg, Florida. Severson is an analyst who covers Polar Power and provided information about the charger to CSP Daily News.
