Abstract
A battery charging station includes a power bus, a power supplying unit, a first voltage converting unit and a processor. The power supplying unit receives a first power to generate a second power accordingly and transmits the second power to the power bus as a supplying power of the power bus. The first voltage converting unit is coupled to the power bus and is connected to a first battery removably disposed in the battery station. The processor sets the first voltage converting unit to operate in a first mode or a second mode, the first voltage converting unit in the first mode receives the supplying power from the power bus so as to charge the first battery. The first voltage converting unit in the second mode receives the electrical power from the first battery and generates a second mode power towards the power bus.
