Centralized and scalable charging infrastructure solution, ideal for day parkers and fleet operators
Grid-friendly and intelligent distribution of the available total power through dynamic and phase-individual load management
Minimal maintenance costs due to central arrangement of the components
chargeBIG is a corporate startup from MAHLE that provides centralized and scalable charging infrastructure for day parkers, fleet operators, and for use cases with 18 to 100 or more electrified parking lots. The charging solution relies on intelligent single-phase and dynamic charging power between 2.3 – 7.2kW to charge many vehicles in parallel at one location. The chargeBIG charging infrastructure consists of a central charging cabinet and charging points with permanently fixed type-2 charging cables at the parking lot.
The chargeBIG charging hardware is very cost-effective. The investments include the charging equipment at the parking spot including a permanently fixed type-2 charging cable, the sub-distribution for up to 36 charging points in the form of the industrially manufactured charging cabinet and the central load management.
Scalable – Large scale electrification of parking spots is possible
Cost-effective – Smaller investment in charging hardware and operation as well as reduced costs for power grid expansion
Grid-friendly – Contribution to grid stabilization due to intelligently controlled charging points
User-friendly – Easy to use due to fixed charging cable and activation via app
