It is possible to charge the battery of Renault Fluence Z.E. at home and in public places: At home, thanks to the installation of a Wall-Box that can be installed for a standard charge between 6 and 8 hours. Chief benefits are battery-charge speed, the assurance that it complies with local standards, its user-friendliness and its ability to communicate with the electricity network in order to take advantage of the lowest possible electricity rates, at night or off-peak, for example.
For occasional use, it is possible to charge via a household mains supply (10A, 220V) which will fully charge the battery in about 10 hours. Renault offers a battery charging cable (either as an accessory or an option) which plugs into the 220V domestic supply.
Access to public battery charging facilities: standard (between 6 and 8 hours), accelerated (1 hour) and fast (30 minutes) battery charging is ensured thanks to the many agreements that have been put into place by the Renault-Nissan Alliance.
In each of the three countries where Renault has reached agreements with Better Place (Israel, Denmark and Australia), the*QuickDrop battery switch system*will enable Renault Fluence Z.E.'s battery to be swapped in less than 5 minutes at bespoke battery exchange stations*Fluence Z.E.
