Aside from maybe a couple test Supercharger locations in Cali, none of the existing superchargers have "on site" battery packs.My understanding is that the usually fenced in part of the supercharger site contains inverters to convert the AC from the grid to DC where it is then stored in battery packs. When a car is charged, DC electricity is transferred from the site's battery packs directly into the car's packs. What is your understanding?
You are correct, that the fenced in part holds the inverter cabinets that - in real time - take AC from the grid and convert to DC for the car, based on the demand (i.e. cars hooked up for charging)
Each cabinet powers/services 2 charging stalls.
