If you have preordered I think you should have received info on Porsche’s wall charger via email.
You mean you have received info on this sort of stuff already?

I've not preordered as the sedan is not of use to me. Only interesting car for me would be the Sport Turismo version, not a fan of the Cross Turismo.

But I read in a norwegian Facebook group for the Taycan that this was emailed to those with a pre-order. Also with a stated price for the charger I think.

Clearly yes :D

They're in a hurry over here btw expanding existing dealerships and establishing new ones! There will be an avalanche of Taycans coming here soon...

Have anybody experience with Porsche charger? Do they are able to manage external load balancing via modbus or equivalent?

No idea! but for the price I hope it can even fry an egg! Its interesting how in Europe the wall units are expensive. A regular ABB wall unit is at least 1000CHF where the Tesla unit is only 555CHF and does the exact same thing just more elegantly……...

Lithium battery charging is a very simple process, so any charger should be ok.

No had not. Well written and I tend to concur, considering the very favourable price of the TESLA wall connector compared to even dumb ABB connectors in Europe.... and the Porsche wall connector seems to at least be even more expensive but hopefully a little bit cleverer..….. HOWEVER, the charging circuits in the Menekes (or EU-L2) sockets seems to be more complex and lets the manufacturers safeguard their signaling circuit..... or something... Because I have tried to charge a series of EV rentals from Renault, Nissan and Jaguar and can not for the life of me get them to charge on My TESLA wall connectors...…..
