New battery-powered mobile charging truck

By Michelle Froese | June 27, 2024

Mullen Automotive has released its zero-emissions version of PowerUP, Mullen’s mobile EV charging solution, that will now be offered on its Class 3 all-electric cab chassis truck.

Mullen’s PowerUP was first released in July 2023 as a mobile EV charging truck providing level 2 and level 3 DC fast charging capabilities. It served in scenarios lacking power access, such as roadside assistance and emergency response, offering immediate recharging for electric vehicles or backup power in emergencies.

Mullen’s new, zero-emissions PowerUP mobile charging truck represents a strategic pivot from the previously announced model that used a gasoline Class 5 cab chassis platform and a dual-fuel (propane/natural gas) power generation unit.

This transition to a 100% zero-emission model reflects Mullen’s commitment to sustainable transportation, aligning with the overwhelming demand for zero-emission options in mobile EV charging.

Now available with multiple platform integration and scaling options, including the Mullen THREE Class 3 cab chassis truck, the zero-emissions PowerUP system offers significant improvements in charging capabilities and versatility.

The zero-emissions mobile charging solution is designed to be a scalable battery platform adaptable to diverse market demands, ranging from 10 kW to 1 MW, and capable of using both new and repurposed battery cells. It includes Level 3 DC fast charging, off-grid AC power, and micro-grid connectivity, catering to various applications. Its quiet operation and minimal noise pollution makes it well-suited for noise-sensitive environments, such as urban centres, hospitals, parking garages, campuses, and residential areas.

Features

  • Vehicle: Mullen THREE, all-electric Class 3 EV cab chassis truck
  • Peak Capacity: 160 kWh (Scalable to 1 MWh)
  • Outputs:
    • 2 X Level 3 Fast Chargers (60 kW each output)
    • 20kW (up to 160kW) 120V/240V/480V AC Output
    • 12V jumper terminals
  • Additional PowerUP Recharging Options:
    • Solar and wind off grid power generation
    • Bi-directional 480V grid connection

Mullen is developing PowerUP at its High Energy Facility located in Fullerton, California. This facility is dedicated to producing the next-generation of American-made EV battery packs. Mullen’s acquisition of battery pack production assets from Romeo Power accelerate the development of PowerUP as a battery based mobile charging solution.
