Among the several issues which hinder electric cars becoming more popular, one is the battery capacity, another one is the battery charging problem.
In US currently there are three major charging standards. The first one is called CHAdeMO. Its full name is CHAdeMO – JEVS (Japan Electric Vehicle Standard) G105-1993. Several major automakers have implemented and used this standard, for example you can see this on the Nissan LEAF.
