I did not know that you could generate enough power from a solar/battery setup to charge an EV. I thought they required tons of electricity (several kilowatts) to be charged. But if you can do this via solar, that would be a benefit for sure.

Oh yeah, you can get solar panels on the roof of a car port for charging. In the UK, some car parks use them for electric charging bays. What may be happening is the solar set-up takes longer to get to 80% charge than a mains set-up.
