During the Power2Drive exhibition in Munich, Gresgying unveiled its latest release.
This is a 480-kilowatt charging hub, featuring real-time SOC displays, perfect cable management, and SiC modules.
“The highlight is that this is our first group charging system with the satellite system and charging hub along with the terminals,” explains Alice Chou, Gresgying’s sales director, in a conversation with Mobility Portal Europe.
“The best thing about the 480-kilowatt charging hub is that it can now be connected in parallel with two units, allowing for up to 960 kilowatts of output,” says Chou.
It’s worth mentioning that the company offers two different terminals based on customer requirements.
One is the “standard” version with two connectors each 300 amps.
The other is a liquid-cooled system with one connector that can deliver up to 500 amps.
“We especially recommend this liquid-cooled version. This is the standout feature,” comments the sales director.
Although the terminal looks like a standard charger, it also shows the state of charge (SOC) and the amps in the top corner of the screen.
“It’s smaller compared to other charging stations, which saves space and has a more attractive appearance,” she notes.
Another notable feature is that it has a ten-inch screen instead of the standard seven-inch one, and it can be configured in more than 16 languages.
“The charging process with this equipment is easy to carry out, thanks to the options on the screen and the use of cards,” acknowledges Chou.
During the exhibition, this product caught the attention of several charging point operators (CPOs).
“We met several CPOs at the exhibition. DC fast charging is evolving towards high-power levels like 480 kilowatts , even megawatts,” says the sales director.
“That’s why we want to make charging faster than ever,” she adds.
It’s worth noting that the company has already launched megawatt charging in China.
While for the European market the firm is focusing on the 480-kilowatts unit, Chou acknowledges that “Later on, Gresgying will definitely bet on megawatt charging as well.”
She continues, “It’s a market trend and a customer demand.”
Another interesting feature is that, in the future, this product could have compatibility with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology.
“V2G is ideal at the moment, and we cannot deny the possibility of this combination,” comments the sales director.
However, she admits that, since this is new equipment and certification is still in process, the company does not yet know exactly when this option will be available.
Finally, it’s important to highlight that the company is in the process of obtaining certifications for this charger for the German market, so “it will probably be sold across Europe.”
“Attached with CCS 2 sockets, it can be offered in Europe and other countries that use this type of connector. That will be our target market,” she indicates.
Gresgying previews upcoming initiatives
Gresgying plans to open a branch in Germany and has already begun the registration process.
Although it is expected to be ready by February 2025, Chou indicates, “The process for a Chinese manufacturer to register an office in this country is long.”
“Although we cannot always have very high expectations, we will try to do it as quickly as possible,” she adds.
Currently, with regards to Europe, the company already has charging infrastructure installed in Iceland, the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Romania, Croatia, Greece, the Czech Republic, Estonia, and more.
Their goal is to continue their expansion.
Therefore, company representatives attend various electromobility events, such as Power2Drive, to explain to other firms in the sector who they are and what they offer.
As of today, Gresgying has over 105,000 charging terminals in operation across Asia, Europe, and Australia.
