Each Flash charger carries 370kWh of on-site battery storage

That buffering approach is central to how BYD has quickly scaled the network. A site that would otherwise need an industrial-grade grid connection can instead run on a more ordinary one

This is very cool, and answers a question I've heard from users here, arguing that the draw from a cluster of such chargers would overwhelm the grid.
