The task
High-power EV charging only works reliably where the grid can sustain peak loads — a fundamental infrastructure problem. The challenge was a complete system concept capable of delivering up to 350 kW per vehicle largely independent of the grid: robust, maintainable, scalable, and future-proof for both battery and fuel cell vehicles.
Our contribution
Full system architecture through to series-ready design — from a single source:
• Full system concept — fuel cell (40–450 kW) + modular battery storage + optional grid connection
• Enclosure design & engineering — compact housing, active liquid cooling, 17″ HMI, CCS2
• Modular energy storage — battery modules hot-swappable during active charging
• On-site H₂ generation via ammonia cracking — no external logistics required
• Intelligent energy management — bidirectional controllers between independent storage strings
• 3 patent filings (DE) — modular storage · hybrid charging station · H₂ integration
• Spin-off product line — concept became the foundation for the standalone PSU charging unit
The result
A fully engineered high-power charging infrastructure (up to 350 kW/vehicle), three patent applications, complete engineering documentation, and 3D renderings. The research project ran from 2017 to 2024 — leading to a company founding and a standalone product line.
