Quoth Wikipedia:

> Image result for gas station pump flow rate Light passenger vehicle pump up to about 50 litres (13 US gallons) per minute (the United States limits this to 10 US gallons (38 litres) per minute); pumps serving trucks and other large vehicles have a higher flow rate, up to 130 litres (34 US gallons) per minute in the UK. and 40 US gallons (150 litres) in the US.

So roughly 80 megawatts coming out of that diesel nozzle. Most impressive!

I've heard of CCS chargers in development that'll push 350kW (920V, 500A), which involves crazy stuff like liquid-cooled connectors. They flow 3M Novec through the cable.: https://ittcannon.com/core/medialibrary/ittcannon/website/li...
