Electric vehicle charging station and method of controlling an electric vehicle charging station

摘要

An electric vehicle charging station is provided. The electric vehicle charging station includes an interface, by way of which the charging station receives energy from an electrical energy supply grid, an energy intermediate storage device for intermediate storage of energy received or transmitted by way of the interface from the electrical energy supply grid, a plurality of output connections for charging electric vehicles and a control unit for controlling the energy intermediate storage in the energy intermediate storage device and for controlling the delivery of energy by way of the plurality of output connections. The control unit is configured to pass energy from the energy intermediate storage device to the plurality of output connections when the energy drawn at the output connections cannot be made available completely using the interface to the electrical energy supply grid.
