For local authorities and public fleets in particular, this will increase cost efficiencies, enabling organisations to buy electricity at off peak rates, store it in vehicle batteries and then re-route it back into their own ‘micro network’ of buildings, equipment and fleet vehicles at times when power is more expensive.
Our British designed bi-directional ultra-rapid DC chargers are V2X enabled and we’re proud to support partners including Veolia, where our charging solution for their electric refuse collection trucks significantly reduces operational costs while helping achieve their ambitious decarbonization vision. You can read more about our pioneering work with Veolia here: Helping to Power Veolia’s 4 billion Euro Decarbonisation pledge.
Moving to MCS (Megawatt Charging System) capability in the future will deliver charging times for very heavy trucks of less than 30 minutes, allowing depot operators to work within logistics models which closely resemble those used today when fuelling conventional vehicles. Our MCS- ready VELOX m chargers can handle battery outputs of 150 to 1250 V and are configured to suit current fleet needs with up to 1.2 MW capacity, so future-proofing your charging infrastructure and protecting your investment.
