Kempower started pilot deliveries of its own megawatt charging system (MCS) from the company’s European factories. As we got to know, the system developed by the Finnish company manages to deliver up to 1.2 MW of power and 1,500 A of current, thus “addressing the critical requirements of long-haul electric trucks and other energy-intensive vehicles”, as stated by Kempower.

Kempower’s megawatt charging system

The Kempower Mega Satellite System is designed to work with current MCS and CCS2 DC charging standards and is ready for future megawatt charging standards. According to Kempower, “a dual strategy with MCS and High-Power CCS co-existing in the same truck charging ecosystem is a must”. In Kempower’s Megawatt Charging System the MCS and CCS outputs can be in the same system for maximal flexibility, and the unused power can be distributed among several outputs through dynamic power sharing.

“The pilot deliveries of our Megawatt Charging System marks a significant milestone in the electrification of heavy-duty transport. As we enter the new era of transportation – the electrification of trucks and other heavy duty EVs – we are proud to offer a solution that meets their charging demands with efficiency, scalability, and sustainability at its core,” commented Jussi Vanhanen, Chief Market Officer at Kempower
