ChargeTronix, a global provider of intelligent electric vehicle charging infrastructure, introduced its new 480 kW Nexus Distributed Charger. The new charger is designed to support the charging needs for commercial fleets as they shift to electric trucking, the company said.
With up to 480 kW of available power and dynamic power sharing, the company said the Nexus Distributed Charger is the first system to allow charging for up to six commercial vehicles at a time from a single power cabinet.
It can also charge a 300 kWh Class 6 to 8 EV in 30 to 45 minutes or enable longer dwell times for multiple trucks during peak downtime periods.
With the electric truck market forecasted to grow by more than 54 percent on average each year between now and 2030, having scalable charging infrastructure will be essential for supporting fleets’ seamless transitions.
“As the demand for electric trucks grows, acquiring an all-electric fleet is only half of the equation for fleet operators,” said Stephen Israel, vice president of operations at ChargeTronix.
“Having charging infrastructure that provides dynamic power sharing in 40 kW power increments enables the operator to optimize charging to align with their duty cycle. With flexible solutions such as our new Nexus Distributed System, operators can share long dwell and opportunity charging assets.”
ChargeTronix will showcase the Nexus Distributed Charging System alongside its lineup of commercial fleet products during the 2024 ACT Expo, May 20-23 in Las Vegas.
In addition to the 480 kW Nexus Distributed Charger and the accompanying Nexus Dispenser Towers, the list of products being shown include:
180 kW Apex DC Fast Charger, which offers a broad voltage range from 150 to 1,000 VDC, accommodating various EV needs. ChargeTronix also offers Apex chargers that can cover up to 360 kW output, depending on the number of power modules in the unit.
Phoenix Bidirectional Charger: (V2G), which enables two-way electricity flow between electric vehicles and the power grid supporting power ranges from 20 to 60 kW.
Flux AC Chargers, including the 48 Amp and 80 Amp Flux AC single and double chargers. The Flux AC chargers deliver up to 11.52 kW, enabling quick and efficient EV charging for both commercial and residential uses.
Fuel savings don’t come from one big change. They come from dozens of small ones. Here’s how leading fleets are stacking gains across drivers, routing, maintenance, and more.
