The Great EV Debate: Will Battery Swapping Replace Fast Charging?

EV adoption is no longer a question of if but of how fast. Yet, despite rapid progress, consumer pain points remain remarkably consistent: limited range, slow charging times, and high costs. Fast-charging technologies are racing ahead to address the first two challenges, with speeds approaching 350 kW per vehicle, but this progress introduces new challenges for grid operators already facing significant load growth.  

In this webinar, Lux looks deeply into whether fast charging is the right technology to scale or if battery swapping can address all three consumer pain points. We’ll examine the tipping points that could preview mass adoption of battery swapping. Our discussion will cover strategies for managing the power demands of fast chargers, highlight key automaker projects and pilots to watch, and share insights from our economic analysis on when — and where — battery swapping could reach a tipping point.
