Kempower

With AC charging, the vehicle's built-in onboard charger converts alternating current to direct current. This limits the power to a maximum of 22 kW. A DC fast charger does this conversion itself and supplies direct current directly to the battery, with capacities from 50 to 400 kW. The result: where AC charging takes hours, a DC fast charger brings a vehicle to 80% in 15 to 45 minutes.

Yes, and this is exactly where Powerland makes the difference. Via an energy management system (EMS), the fast charger preferably charges with its own solar energy, battery storage smooths out peaks and dynamic energy tariffs are utilized. The result: lower grid costs, less dependence on the grid and a more stable charging infrastructure - even with growth.

Not the type of business, but the traffic volume, charging profile and grid capacity determine whether a DC fast charger is profitable. Therefore we do NOT distinguish businesses, but charging scenarios.

Charging scenario 1: High throughput & short stop time

Suitable for: public charging, retail, gas stations, highway exits, high-traffic zones
Characteristics:

• many vehicles per day
• short stops (15-30 min)
• high occupancy rate
• early or late need for battery buffering

Charging scenario 2: Medium throughput & mixed use

Suitable for: offices, showrooms, smaller depots, office zones
Characteristics:

• mix of employees, visitors, occasional vehicles
• vehicles sometimes stay on site for longer periods
• lower grid impact

Charging scenario 3: Internal fleet with predictable charging moments

Suitable for: transport, logistics, bus companies, courier services, garbage trucks, forklifts
Characteristics:

• vehicles return to fixed base
• often charge in the evening or at night
• very predictable charging profile
• perfect match with battery storage
