German company ADS-TEC Energy announced that it is making available its Mobile High Power Charger, a fast-charging system for electric vehicles that can be temporarily installed in different locations.

Built in the form of a truck trailer, the mechanism allows for 10 e-vehicles to charge up to 320 kilowatts each in a few minutes.

The concept of the truck trailers enables quick assembly and disassembly directly at the place of use

The trucks have a total capacity of 3.2 megawatts when all charging points are charging simultaneously at full power. This corresponds to the average output of about 3,200 single-family homes.

“Considering the availability of grid connections, which are often only limited, it is a unique opportunity to provide high-charging capacities for a limited period of time and in a flexible location,” ADS-TEC Energy said in a media statement.

The quick-charging trailers were initially put into operation at the end of 2019 at a race track in Barcelona, Spain.

“ADS-TEC Energy GmbH is drawing on its decades of experience with lithium-ion technologies to produce battery storage solutions and fast charging systems, including the corresponding energy management systems. The technology can be used in private homes, public buildings and commercial enterprises,” the press brief states.
