Portable off-grid EV chargers provide sustainable solutions for remote areas

By Michelle Froese | November 26, 2024

Energy Plug Technologies has released its Off-Grid EV Charging Station to support electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure in remote and underserved areas. This system will enable portable charging with a reliable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional grid-dependent stations.

The Off-Grid EV Charging Station leverages the company’s Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and renewable energy technology to create a fully self-contained, modular charging unit. Units range from 20 to 500 kWh and can be equipped with solar panels, wind turbines, or a general grid connection. This enables each unit to operate independently of the electrical grid. making it ideal for remote highways, rural communities, and urban areas.

Each station includes multiple charging ports compatible with Level 2 and Level 3 fast charging, ensuring compatibility with all major EV models. Energy is stored and managed within the advanced battery container, which is engineered for safety and efficiency. The container uses remote monitoring and diagnostics capabilities, enabling real-time tracking of energy production, usage, and system health.

“By combining our proven battery container technology with renewable energy and EV charging, we’re delivering a transformative solution that meets the growing demand for reliable, eco-conscious infrastructure, especially in areas where traditional grids fall short,” explained Brodie Gunning, president and CEO of Energy Plug Technologies.

The Off-Grid EV Charging Station is designed for flexibility and scalability. It can be deployed in remote locations with limited infrastructure, such as national parks and rural highways, providing EV drivers with peace of mind. Urban areas can use the station to support sustainability initiatives, while its modular, containerized design makes it suitable for emergency use during power outages or natural disasters.
