These are the field-upgradable A200/300 All-in-One chargers, the MCS1200 Megawatt Charging System for heavy-duty vehicles, and the ChargeDock Dispenser for flexible depot charging. "Unlike conventional chargers, where a user interface failure can disable the entire system, our architecture ensures c...

As communicated by ABB, the testing took place at MAN in Munich, where full MCS capability was demonstrated using proof-of-concept chargers built on the Terra High Power platform. With charging sessions exceeding 700V and 1,000A the results validated system stability for long-duration, as well as hi...

In addition to overall system engineering, ABB’s contribution to the project included a patented BORDLINE CC200, traction battery, an air-cooled traction motor, vehicle control electronics, a battery thermal management system, and a DC Fast charger.

The MAN eTruck was charged with more than 700 kW and 1,000 A at an MCS charging station from ABB E-mobility. With the finalisation of the MCS standard, charging capacities of over one megawatt will already be possible. This will result in a significant improvement in charging times.

"At MCS, we are working with players from the entire sector to enable charging capacities in the megawatt range in the future and thus sustainable and economical long-distance heavy goods and passenger transport. By cooperating with ABB E-mobility, we can tackle the challenges of the new technology ...

The addition of Vourity brings a key element to ABB E-mobility’s technology stack, allowing it to integrate seamless payment systems into its customer offering. Vourity is a Swedish start-up with award-winning cloud-based technology for payment of EV charging.
