An International Freight Forwarder required electric vehicle charging points at their distribution centre to charge the first electric truck on UK roads. The equipment had to deliver a minimum of 200kW of power via a CCS connector and 43kW via a type 2 AC connector. 

To future proof the installation with the plans to increase the fleet of trucks, they also required a multiple connector arrangement with simultaneous charging capabilities.
The company is using Rapid Charge’s secure software portal to control access to EV charging, monitor usage and have the option to set custom electricity tariffs and recharge electricity usage. Rapid Charge’s Charge point Monitoring Team can monitor the SIM card connected charge points and remotely perform simple fixes and issue down the line updates. This reduces the need for on-site maintenance and minimises inconvenience. 

Rapid Charge, who offer a fully managed service from initial consultation through to surveying, installation and maintenance, were able to provide a state of the art charging units that enables a secure and tracked usage arrangement.
