ADS-TEC Energy (NASDAQ: ADSE) today announced ChargePost, one of
the most compact, battery-based charging systems enabling
ultra-fast electric vehicle (EV) charging, on existing power
connections, without the need to extend existing grids. The system
redefines ultra-fast charging with an all-in-one design that
integrates the battery, power electronics, cooling system and
charger in a compact package requiring less than two square meters
(21.5 square feet) of ground space.

ADS-TEC Energy has announced ChargePost,
one of the most compact, battery-based charging systems enabling
ultra-fast electric vehicle (EV) charging, on existing power
connections, without the need to extend existing grids. The system
redefines ultra-fast charging with an all-in-one design that
integrates the battery, power electronics, cooling system and
charger in a compact package requiring less than two square meters
(21.5 square feet) of ground space. (Graphic: Business Wire)
Each ChargePost is equipped with two charging points for
ultra-fast EV charging, giving drivers more than 100 kilometers (60
miles) of range in just a few minutes (up to 300 kW DC power with
one charging point and 150 kW with two charging points in use at
the same time) and up to two optional 75-inch digital displays on
its exterior surfaces. ChargePost has a configurable 143 or 201 kWh
battery capacity.
“ChargePost delivers a new level of excellence for EV charging,
combining the highest charging power with high-end quality
materials and large displays in a battery-stored, all-in-one
charging solution,” said Thomas Speidel, CEO ADS-TEC Energy. “This
solution supports the transition to electric vehicles and can
accelerate the expansion of charging infrastructure throughout
Europe and the U.S."
ChargePost is available immediately in Germany and Europe and
will be available in the U.S. soon.
ChargePost – Energy storage, fast-charging station and
advertising platform in one easy-to-install package
ChargePost combines battery-stored and boosted charging power at
two charging points, including power electronics and air
conditioning, in an extremely powerful, compact, low-noise
"all-in-one" system. With simple, quick set-up – by forklift –
ChargePost features plug-and-play installation at ground level,
connecting directly to the existing, power-limited, low-voltage
grid. Ultra-fast EV charging is possible almost anywhere with
ChargePost, including inner cities and rural areas where
high-voltage grids are often not available. ChargePost is ideal for
gas stations, car dealerships, transport logistics companies,
office and commercial buildings, and fleet operators whose vehicles
run in multiple shifts and need to charge quickly. In large
residential buildings or neighborhoods, ChargePost is a real and
future-proof alternative to conventional AC wall chargers, which
cannot be installed in sufficient numbers everywhere. ChargePost
offers maximum flexibility for spontaneous and rapid charging of
several vehicles in succession.
The configurable battery capacity of ChargePost is between 143
and 201 kW. The integrated charging cable with uncooled CCS1/CCS2
connector is at least three meters long. The 10-inch touchscreen
interface is particularly user-friendly and includes an easy-to-use
payment terminal. This equips the system for the future as a public
charging station. It is also easy to maintain with direct access to
modular functional units such as battery elements, cooling and
monitors. Battery modules can be replaced individually as needed,
and an intelligent control system optimizes the system for ideal
operation. This increases the longevity and makes the system
particularly efficient.
The optional 75-inch displays on ChargePost's side panels
provide 4K/ultra high-definition image/video quality for
revenue-generating advertising. As attention-grabbing visual
attractors, the displays offer an impressive canvas for a variety
of possible customized image and video messages that chargepoint
operators can use to advertise their own offerings or sell to other
brands.
The system enables the additional integration of a camera for
motion detection or video recording and energy-efficient, safe
operation. With these features, ChargePost enables electric vehicle
charging as well as advertising. The integrated battery system also
serves as an energy platform: In conjunction with a photo-voltaic
(PV) system, low-cost in-house electricity can be used to charge
EVs or for grid services. The possibility of feeding stored energy
bidirectional back into the grid – available in the first half of
2023 – is a special feature of the ChargePost and opens up
completely new business models for operators.
ChargePost supports e-mobility through flexible deployment at
many locations without grid expansion
Against the backdrop of EU directives to achieve CO2 targets,
around 43 million electrically-powered passenger cars and four
million light commercial vehicles are expected to be on Europe's
roads in 2030. These 47 million electric vehicles will need the
appropriate charging infrastructure: around 7.5 million public
charging points would need to be created, resulting in 14,000
charging points being installed each week. The use of
battery-buffered ultra-fast charging stations such as ChargePost in
inner cities and rural areas, where expansion of the network
infrastructure is limited, helps to reduce the total number of
charging stations needed, as more vehicles could be charged in a
shorter time. Due to this special performance and efficiency with
minimal size, the charging technology from ADS-TEC Energy 2022 was
nominated for the German Future Prize of the German President and
elevated to his "circle of the excellence."
