ChargePoint, a leading EV charging company, is launching a new charging solution which aims to help businesses that are looking to transition to electrification. The company have announced that the CP6000, ChargePoints most flexible and serviceable global AC EV charging solution, is now available for vehicles of all types and sizes.
The CP6000 is designed for the needs of the European market and is a complete charging solution for businesses and fleets that want to confidently and efficiently prepare for the future of electric mobility.
The charging solution is seamlessly integrating network software, station hardware and customer support and is designed to prepare businesses of all kinds across the globe for the next wave of EV adoption.
The CP6000 is said by the company to be designed for scalability, flexibility, reliability, and a best-in-class driver experience, and offers reliable AC charging for 1 or 3 phase power at an adaptable output of 3.7 to 33kw per port.
“ChargePoint’s mission is to make the transition to electric mobility simple. As the result of ChargePoint’s experience shaping the charging industry over the past 15 years, we understand what is critical to station owners and drivers, including effortless charging experiences, scalable design, quality products and excellent service” said ChargePoint Chief Product Officer, Bill Loewenthal.
“EV charging needs are universal, even if what and how we drive varies by geography. The CP6000 has been designed across our R&D facilities in North America and Europe to cater to the charging needs of businesses, fleets and EV drivers. Built on our decade-plus of experience serving EV drivers and all types of organisations, CP6000 has what businesses need to be part of the future of electric mobility.”
The ChargePoint app has over 200,000 active places to charge on its network globally, as well as an additional 355,000 public places to charge through roaming integrations with other major networks. The addition of the CP6000 network ensures drivers are easily able to find, use and pay for the charge they need.
“The new CP6000 series is a great addition to an already strong contingent of reliable, software driven hardware we offer our clients” stated Bruce Galliford, CEO at RAW Charging, one of the first customers to receive the new technology.
“When ChargePoint expanded to Europe, we saw a company with the longevity, customer base, engineering prowess and experience to be a fit with our vision. Leaving the technology to ChargePoint, we can focus on deployment. We have more projects coming for Aviva Investors, Greene King, McArthurGlen and other customers. We’re currently planning strategic expansion across Europe working with organisations that have a portfolio of sites across the continent. This year we’ll be putting in four new sites per working day, and when you’re doing that, you want it to work flexibly and at scale.”
The CP6000 has been designed to operate on Europe’s variety of power grids and regulations and is now available to order across dozens of ChargePoint operating countries.
