Siemens and Tesla are using pre-fabrication techniques to speed the installation time and lower the cost of fast chargers.
Thanks to its scalability, this solution can be installed outdoors and can be equipped with Level 2 or Level 3 fast chargers, according to the needs of individual customers. It also permits a simple way to expand the installation as demands change and it simplifies maintenance.
A VersiCharge XL prototype has already been completed at the Siemens research and development center for electrical products and e-mobility solutions in Peachtree Corners, Georgia. Installation took just 3 days, the company says. The building material — manufactured by Nexii in the US — has properties comparable to concrete, but with a much lower carbon footprint
The prototype is the industry’s first EV charging system to house all the necessary components to power EV chargers above ground in a closed, low carbon structure. This eliminates costly and time consuming construction work, while reducing construction waste and environmental pollution on site. “The enormous growth in electromobility requires the simple and rapid expansion of a reliable and sustainable charging infrastructure,” says Markus Mildner, CEO of eMobility at Siemens Smart Infrastructure. The concept shows how Siemens and its partners are working on innovative ideas “to support this growth in the US market.”
