MAN Truck & Bus is now offering its customers a new, exclusive option for charging their electric trucks and buses: the Smart Charging Cube is being offered in cooperation with AW Automotive.
It can be operated in a vehicle depot or maintenance yard as well as in decentralised locations, such as construction sites.
Depending on local conditions, it can be connected to the mains with a current of 32 A to 630 A.
The Smart Charging Cube is essentially a battery with power electronics and a charging station.
The battery is available with storage capacities ranging from 500 kWh to 1,100 kWh.
One to four points can be implemented per cube, with a maximum capacity of 400 kW.
As a battery storage unit, it is also capable of supplying an external megawatt (MCS) station, enabling charging capacities of 1,000 kW.
The Cube can integrate self-generated electricity, for example from photovoltaic systems.
In addition, various charging functions are possible, including peak shaving, dynamic power consumption and bidirectional charging.
It is now available to MAN customers for the first time.
The Cube can be purchased, leased or rented.
