A Efacec, company that was acquired by the German fund, Mutares, announced that it will strengthen its presence in the United States market with a partnership with eV Power Exchange Corp. (eV Power), a client based in Salt Lake City, for the supply and installation of 132 QC45 electric chargers in the state of Utah, in the western area of the American territory.
«With 20 chargers already installed and another 50 planned by the end of the second quarter of 2024, the new electric vehicle charging network will be one of the largest in the state of Utah by the end of the year,» clarifies Efacec in a statement.
Efacec clarified that each station includes four QC45 chargers, allowing the simultaneous charging of four vehicles, one of which is intended for drivers with reduced mobility.
The QC45 charging solution was developed entirely by Efacec and is characterized by its fast charging capability of up to 80% in less than 30 minutes and its high reliability, incorporating a CCS output and a CHAdeMO output.
The established partnership includes the licensing and customization of a Charging Point Management System (CPMS), EVCore, designed by Efacec. The software allows drivers to locate, identify, and reserve available chargers through a customized mobile application (app) for eV Power.
According to Efacec, one of the competitive advantages of the solution delivered to eV Power, compared to others available in the market, «is the possibility to customize it according to the needs and requirements of the client and, in this case, to eV Power and the US market. By integrating a credit card payment terminal, the driver can make the payment without needing to install the app and register in the system, streamlining the charging process.»
«The strengthening of the relationship and partnership with eV Power, with the delivery of over a hundred fast DC chargers, as well as the EVCore platform (CPMS) and its mobile application and web portal, reinforces Efacec’s strong commitment to the development and delivery of sustainable mobility solutions,» says Michael Silva, Chief Commercial Officer of Efacec.
