AVL | Software and Functions | NEFTON Megawatt Charging event

𝗠𝗲𝗴𝗮 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 – 𝗠𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘁𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 🚛🔋⚡

We are thrilled to announce the world's first public demonstration of a Megawatt Charging System (MCS) with over 1,000 kW – one of the first bidirectional charging stations in use.

As part of the "NEFTON" research project, AVL Software and Functions GmbH is working with partners from science and industry to make freight transport with battery-electric trucks more efficient.

Last Friday, we showcased this pioneering megawatt charging station together with Bavaria's Minister of Economic Affairs, Hubert Aiwanger on the Technology Campus of Technische Hochschule Deggendorf in Plattling. This is a monumental milestone! 🚀

Thanks to this innovative charging station and the truck prototype from MAN Truck & Bus SE, truck batteries can now be charged during legally required breaks, ensuring for hours of uninterrupted driving.

A special thanks goes also to our incredible team, who contributed to this smooth charging process with a specially developed control unit. Our software and hardware from AVL Software and Functions ensure:

◾ Efficient interaction between all components
◾ Seamless communication with the vehicle: bidirectional charging for combined charging systems (CCS) in accordance with the latest ISO 15118-20 standard and megawatt charging in accordance with the MCS standard
◾ Comprehensive monitoring and control of the system: power electronics, auxiliary units, buffer storage
◾ Optimized energy management

This is a significant step towards sustainable logistics. 🌍🍃
