fast-charging

Speedy power restoration

Fast-charging describes technology that recharges batteries significantly faster than standard methods.

Electric vehicles and smartphones advertise fast-charging capability as a selling point: The phone supports fast-charging—zero to eighty percent in thirty minutes.

The hyphen typically appears when the term modifies a noun: a fast-charging station.

Without the hyphen, it functions as a verb phrase: My phone is fast charging.
