A charging station for an electric vehicle, wherein the vehicle has a body and a first coupler mounted to the body and wherein the station includes a second coupler for releasably complementarily coupling with coupler for allowing a transfer of energy from the coupler to the coupler at a coupler voltage and a coupler current. A DC energy storage device for providing a device current at a device voltage. An interface connects with an external source of electrical energy and a control module provides control signals. A switching module is responsive to the control signals for selectively: connecting the second coupler and the interface such that one or more of the coupler voltage and the coupler current is regulated by the interface; and connecting the storage device and the interface such that one or more of the device current and the device voltage is regulated by the interface.
