Delta claims that its new 500kW DC fast EV charger (UFC 500) can fully charge a 460 kW powered electric truck/bus within two hours, whilst simultaneously charging two EVs at up to 250kW each. The USP, according to Delta, is the power ratio versus its compactness/footprint ratio. This is largely due to the patented internal circuit topology.

BorgWarner has installed a “super-fast” 960kW liquid-cooled high-power supercharging HGV electric charger at the Decathlon warehouse in Goodman Citylink near Beijing.

BP Pulse has acquired the 21-acre Ashford International truck stop in Kent with plans to electrify the site with twenty-megawatt chargers in Q1 2026. This acquisition signifies BP’s long-term plan - creating a European-wide EV charging network.

Using a prototype charger developed together with the e-mobility division of ABB, MAN charged up its ‘eTruck’ with more than 700 kW of power and an electric current of 1,000 amps.

Milence says the hub will be “strategically located” for heavy-duty hauliers travelling between Paris and key settlements in Normandy, including Le Havre, Caen, Dieppe, and Rouen.

Paccar has installed its first on-site power supply system consisting of 750 solar panels, at the BEST DAF Trucks centre in Barendrecht, Netherlands. In combination with an energy storage system, the solar panels power the three superchargers, able to fast charge electric trucks (maximum output of 360 kW) leaving the workshop.

The company is set to supply 140 electric charging stations to Nobina, Scandinavia’s largest public transport operator, for use at four electric bus depots across Stockholm, Sweden. The chargers are to be installed by the end of 2024 and in operation by Q1 2025. This signifies Ekoenergetyka’s continued growth in the Nordic markets.

Kempower expects to offer boosted charging performance with its next-generation DC fast charging technology. Series production is set for late Q1 2024 in the Lahti plant in Finland and Q2 2024 in the North Carolina factory in the USA.

The two engineering teams have already started working together on ChargePoint’s new generation EV chargers, building on a previous manufacturing agreement. ChargePoint wants to capitalise on AcBel’s 40 years of R&D experience, bringing more efficient EV chargers to market, faster and at a lower cost.

Kempower has won a grant for EUR 10 million from Business Finland, a state development agency, to develop a heavy-duty electric truck charging network across the country. The government funds will be paid over five years, whilst an additional EUR 20 million will finance future projects under the charging infrastructure development programme (Heavy Electric Traffic Ecosystem).

Charging infrastructure is continually being built to support additional battery electric truck deployments. DTNA’s truck manufacturing plant in Santiago TMP, Monterrey, has been designated as a new site for the second commercial vehicle charging facility in Mexico, which will be equipped with a Detroit eFill charger, boasting a charging capacity of up to 120kW.

The company announced plans to electrify the HTM bus depot in the Hague, Netherlands. Construction has begun, with the depot expected to be up and running by Q3 2024. The supply agreement includes the chargers, installation, maintenance,  charging management software as well as the delivery of 95 Mercedes-Benz eCitaro city buses.
